This class represents an IP prefix, i.e., a contiguous block of IP addresses aligned on a power of two boundary (also known as an "IP subnet"). A prefix is specified by two pieces of information:
  • A starting IP address (IPv4 or IPv6). This is the first IP address of the prefix.
  • A prefix length. This specifies the length of the prefix by specifing the number of bits in the IP address, starting from the most significant bit in network byte order, that are constant for all addresses in the prefix.
For example, the prefix 192.0.2.0/24 covers the 256 IPv4 addresses from 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255, inclusive, and the prefix 2001:db8:1:2 covers the 2^64 IPv6 addresses from 2001:db8:1:2:: to 2001:db8:1:2:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff, inclusive. Objects of this class are immutable.

Constructs a new IpPrefix from a byte array containing an IPv4 or IPv6 address in network byte order and a prefix length. Silently truncates the address to the prefix length, so for example 192.0.2.1/24 is silently converted to 192.0.2.0/24.
Params:
  • address – the IP address. Must be non-null and exactly 4 or 16 bytes long.
  • prefixLength – the prefix length. Must be >= 0 and <= (32 or 128) (IPv4 or IPv6).
