Packages that use NetworkInterface

Package	Description
java.net	Provides the classes for implementing networking applications.
java.nio.channels	Defines channels, which represent connections to entities that are capable of performing I/O operations, such as files and sockets; defines selectors, for multiplexed, non-blocking I/O operations.

Uses of NetworkInterface in java.net

Fields in with type parameters of type

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`static SocketOption<NetworkInterface>`	StandardSocketOptions.`IP_MULTICAST_IF` The network interface for Internet Protocol (IP) multicast datagrams.

Methods in that return

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`static NetworkInterface`	NetworkInterface.`getByIndex(int index)` Get a network interface given its index.
`static NetworkInterface`	NetworkInterface.`getByInetAddress(InetAddress addr)` Convenience method to search for a network interface that has the specified Internet Protocol (IP) address bound to it.
`static NetworkInterface`	NetworkInterface.`getByName(String name)` Searches for the network interface with the specified name.
`NetworkInterface`	MulticastSocket.`getNetworkInterface()` Get the multicast network interface set.
`NetworkInterface`	NetworkInterface.`getParent()` Returns the parent NetworkInterface of this interface if this is a subinterface, or `null` if it is a physical (non virtual) interface or has no parent.
`NetworkInterface`	Inet6Address.`getScopedInterface()` Returns the scoped interface, if this instance was created with with a scoped interface.

Methods in that return types with arguments of type

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`static Enumeration<NetworkInterface>`	NetworkInterface.`getNetworkInterfaces()` Returns all the interfaces on this machine.
`Enumeration<NetworkInterface>`	NetworkInterface.`getSubInterfaces()` Get an Enumeration with all the subinterfaces (also known as virtual interfaces) attached to this network interface.

Methods in java.net with parameters of type NetworkInterface

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`static Inet6Address`	Inet6Address.`getByAddress(String host, byte[] addr, NetworkInterface nif)` Create an Inet6Address in the exact manner of `InetAddress.getByAddress(String,byte[])` except that the IPv6 scope_id is set to the value corresponding to the given interface for the address type specified in `addr`.
`boolean`	InetAddress.`isReachable(NetworkInterface netif, int ttl, int timeout)` Test whether that address is reachable.
`void`	MulticastSocket.`joinGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr, NetworkInterface netIf)` Joins the specified multicast group at the specified interface.
`protected abstract void`	DatagramSocketImpl.`joinGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr, NetworkInterface netIf)` Join the multicast group.
`void`	MulticastSocket.`leaveGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr, NetworkInterface netIf)` Leave a multicast group on a specified local interface.
`protected abstract void`	DatagramSocketImpl.`leaveGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr, NetworkInterface netIf)` Leave the multicast group.
`void`	MulticastSocket.`setNetworkInterface(NetworkInterface netIf)` Specify the network interface for outgoing multicast datagrams sent on this socket.

Uses of NetworkInterface in java.nio.channels

Methods in that return

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`abstract NetworkInterface`	MembershipKey.`networkInterface()` Returns the network interface for which this membership key was created.

Methods in java.nio.channels with parameters of type NetworkInterface

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`MembershipKey`	MulticastChannel.`join(InetAddress group, NetworkInterface interf)` Joins a multicast group to begin receiving all datagrams sent to the group, returning a membership key.
`MembershipKey`	MulticastChannel.`join(InetAddress group, NetworkInterface interf, InetAddress source)` Joins a multicast group to begin receiving datagrams sent to the group from a given source address.
