Identifies an IP address on a network link. A LinkAddress consists of:
  • An IP address and prefix length (e.g., 2001:db8::1/64 or 192.0.2.1/24). The address must be unicast, as multicast addresses cannot be assigned to interfaces.
  • Address flags: A bitmask of OsConstants.IFA_F_* values representing properties of the address (e.g., android.system.OsConstants.IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC).
  • Address scope: One of the OsConstants.IFA_F_* values; defines the scope in which the address is unique (e.g., android.system.OsConstants.RT_SCOPE_LINK or android.system.OsConstants.RT_SCOPE_UNIVERSE).
