A network type.
Declared in <netaddress.h>
enum Network;An address may belong to more than one network, for example 10.0.0.1 belongs to both NET_UNROUTABLE and NET_IPV4. Keep these sequential starting from 0 and NET_MAX as the last entry. We have loops like for (int i = 0; i < NET_MAX; ++i) that expect to iterate over all enum values and also GetExtNetwork() "extends" this enum by introducing standalone constants starting from NET_MAX.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
NET_UNROUTABLE | Addresses from these networks are not publicly routable on the global Internet. |
NET_IPV4 | IPv4 |
NET_IPV6 | IPv6 |
NET_ONION | TOR (v2 or v3) |
NET_I2P | I2P |
NET_CJDNS | CJDNS |
NET_INTERNAL | A set of addresses that represent the hash of a string or FQDN. We use them in AddrMan to keep track of which DNS seeds were used. |
NET_MAX | Dummy value to indicate the number of NET_* constants. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
GetNetworkName | Get the canonical name of a network. |
GetProxy | Get the proxy configured for a given network, if any. |
ParseNetwork | Parse a network name into its Network enumerator. |
QueryDefaultGateway | Query the OS for the default gateway for network. This only makes sense for NET_IPV4 and NET_IPV6. Returns std::nullopt if it cannot be found, or there is no support for this OS. |
SetProxy | Set the proxy used to reach a given network. |
