Implements interfaces: twisted.names.dns.IEncodable, twisted.names.dns.IRecord

An IPv6 host address.

Instance Variable address The packed network-order representation of the IPv6 address associated with this record. (type: bytes)
Instance Variable ttl The maximum number of seconds which this record should be cached. (type: int)
Method __init__
Method encode Write a representation of this object to the given file object.
Method decode Reconstruct an object from data read from the given file object.
Method __hash__ Undocumented

address =
The packed network-order representation of the IPv6 address associated with this record. (type: bytes)
ttl =
The maximum number of seconds which this record should be cached. (type: int)
def __init__(self, address='::', ttl=None): (source)
ParametersaddressThe IPv6 address for this host, in RFC 2373 format. (type: bytes or unicode)
def encode(self, strio, compDict=None): (source)

Write a representation of this object to the given file object.

ParametersstrioThe stream to which to write bytes (type: File-like object)
compDictA dictionary of backreference addresses that have already been written to this stream and that may be used for compression. (type: dict or None)
def decode(self, strio, length=None): (source)

Reconstruct an object from data read from the given file object.

ParametersstrioThe stream from which bytes may be read (type: File-like object)
lengthThe number of bytes in this RDATA field. Most implementations can ignore this value. Only in the case of records similar to TXT where the total length is in no way encoded in the data is it necessary. (type: int or None)
