Remarks

Indicates that this network is a local network.

Local networks are networks where the device is not obtaining IP addresses from the network, but advertising IP addresses itself. Examples of local networks are: <ul> <li>USB tethering or Wi-Fi hotspot networks to which the device is sharing its Internet connectivity. <li>Thread networks where the current device is the Thread Border Router. <li>Wi-Fi P2P networks where the current device is the Group Owner. </ul>

Networks used to obtain Internet access are never local networks.

Apps that target an SDK before Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM will not see networks with this capability unless they explicitly set the NET_CAPABILITY_LOCAL_NETWORK in their NetworkRequests.
