LocalAddress

java.lang.Object
- java.net.SocketAddress
- - org.jboss.netty.channel.local.LocalAddress

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<LocalAddress>
```
public final class LocalAddress
extends java.net.SocketAddress
implements java.lang.Comparable<LocalAddress>
```
An endpoint in the local transport. Each endpoint is identified by a unique case-insensitive string, except for the pre-defined value called "ephemeral".
Ephemeral Address
An ephemeral address is an anonymous address which is assigned temporarily and is released as soon as the connection is closed. All ephemeral addresses have the same ID, "ephemeral", but they are not equal to each other.
