NetworkInterface Class

Definition

This class represents a Network Interface made up of a name, and a list of IP addresses assigned to this interface.

Remarks

This class represents a Network Interface made up of a name, and a list of IP addresses assigned to this interface. It is used to identify the local interface on which a multicast group is joined.

Interfaces are normally known by names such as "le0".

"access-restrictions">Note that information about NetworkInterfaces may be restricted. For example, non-system apps will only have access to information about NetworkInterfaces that are associated with an InetAddress.
