Method Detail

getAddressCreator

public MACAddressNetwork.MACAddressCreator getAddressCreator()

Specified by:

getAddressCreator in class AddressNetwork<MACAddressSegment>

getPrefixConfiguration

public AddressNetwork.PrefixConfiguration getPrefixConfiguration()

Description copied from class: AddressNetwork

This method determines the prefix configuration in use by this network.

The prefix configuration determines whether a prefixed address like 1.2.0.0/16 results in a subnet block (ie 1.2.*.*) or just a single address (1.2.0.0) with a prefix length.

If you wish to change the default behaviour, you can either call IPv4AddressNetwork.setDefaultPrefixConfiguration(PrefixConfiguration), or IPv6AddressNetwork.setDefaultPrefixConfiguration(PrefixConfiguration) or you can override this method in your own network and use your own network for your addresses.
