Examples

The following code example gets an IPInterfaceProperties object and displays its data.

void DisplayIPv6NetworkInterfaces()
{
   array<NetworkInterface^>^nics = NetworkInterface::GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
   IPGlobalProperties ^ properties = IPGlobalProperties::GetIPGlobalProperties();
   Console::WriteLine( "IPv6 interface information for {0}.{1}", 
       properties->HostName, properties->DomainName );

   int count = 0;

   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum24 = nics->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum24->MoveNext() )
   {
      NetworkInterface ^ adapter = safe_cast<NetworkInterface ^>(myEnum24->Current);

      // Only display informatin for interfaces that support IPv6.
      if ( !adapter->Supports( NetworkInterfaceComponent::IPv6 ) )
      {
         continue;
      }
      
      count++;
      
      Console::WriteLine();
      Console::WriteLine( adapter->Description );

      // Underline the description.
      Console::WriteLine( String::Empty->PadLeft( adapter->Description->Length, '=' ) );
      IPInterfaceProperties ^ adapterProperties = adapter->GetIPProperties();

      // Try to get the IPv6 interface properties.
      IPv6InterfaceProperties ^ p = adapterProperties->GetIPv6Properties();
      if ( !p )

Remarks

This class provides access to configuration and address information for network interfaces that support IPv6. You do not create instances of this class; they are returned by the GetIPv6Properties method.

For IPV4 properties, see GetIPv4Properties.

Constructors

IPv6InterfaceProperties()

Initializes a new instance of the IPv6InterfaceProperties class.

Properties

Index	Gets the index of the network interface associated with an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address.
Mtu	Gets the maximum transmission unit (MTU) for this network interface.
