PROTOCOLS

Connectivity

Defined in fuchsia.net/connectivity.fidl

OnNetworkReachable

This is triggered on a state change in network reachability. Clients should expect that network requests will succeed when reachable is true.

Response

Name	Type
reachable	bool

NameLookup

Defined in fuchsia.net/namelookup.fidl

LookupHostname

Look up a hostname by IP address.

Request

Name	Type
addr	IpAddress

Response

Name	Type
result	NameLookup_LookupHostname_Result

LookupIp

Look up a list of IP addresses by hostname.

If hostname is an Internationalized Domain Name, it must be encoded as per RFC 3490.

hostname	Hostname
options	LookupIpOptions

result	NameLookup_LookupIp_Result

STRUCTS

Endpoint

Defined in fuchsia.net/net.fidl

Endpoint describes an IP address and port. The network protocol associated with the Endpoint will be known from context or communicated through additional structures.

Name	Type	Description	Default
addr	IpAddress	The IP address of the endpoint.	No default
port	uint16	The port number of the endpoint.	No default

IpAddressInfo

Defined in fuchsia.net/namelookup.fidl

Name	Type	Description	Default
ipv4_addrs	vector<Ipv4Address>[256]	All of the IPv4 addresses for the requested hostname.	No default
ipv6_addrs	vector<Ipv6Address>[256]	All of the IPv6 addresses for the requested hostname.	No default
canonical_name	string[256]?	The canonical name of the requested hostname (usually the DNS CNAME record, if one exists).	No default

Ipv4Address

Defined in fuchsia.net/net.fidl

Ipv4Address is expressed in network byte order, so the most significant byte ("127" in the address "127.0.0.1") will be at index 0.

Name	Type	Description	Default
addr	uint8[4]		No default

Ipv4SocketAddress

Defined in fuchsia.net/socket.fidl

An IPv4 socket address, composed of an IPv4 address and a port.

Inspired by the address definition in the POSIX specification.

Name	Type	Description	Default
address	Ipv4Address	IPv4 Address.	No default
port	uint16	Transport-layer port.	No default

Ipv6Address

Defined in fuchsia.net/net.fidl

Ipv6Address is expressed in network byte order, so the most significant byte ("ff" in the address "ff02::1") will be at index 0.

Name	Type	Description	Default
addr	uint8[16]		No default

Ipv6SocketAddress

Defined in fuchsia.net/socket.fidl

An IPV6 socket address, composed of an IPv6 address, a port, and a scope identifier.

Inspired by the address definition in the POSIX specification.

Name	Type	Description	Default
address	Ipv6Address	IPv6 Address.	No default
port	uint16	Transport-layer port.	No default
zone_index	uint64	Provides a means to identify to which zone a non-global address belongs. A node may have interfaces attached to different zones of the same scope, for example different link-local zones are disambiguated by the use of a zone_index providing the interface identifier. zone_index 0 is the default zone. See RFC 4007 for terminology and examples.	No default

MacAddress

Defined in fuchsia.net/net.fidl

A MAC address used to identify a network interface on the data link layer within the network.

Name	Type	Description	Default
octets	uint8[6]		No default

NameLookup_LookupHostname_Response

Defined in fuchsia.net/namelookup.fidl

Name	Type	Description	Default
hostname	Hostname		No default

NameLookup_LookupIp_Response

Defined in fuchsia.net/namelookup.fidl

Name	Type	Description	Default
addr	IpAddressInfo		No default

Subnet

Defined in fuchsia.net/net.fidl

Subnet describes an IP subnetwork, where all host IP addresses share the same most significant bits.

Name	Type	Description	Default
addr	IpAddress	The Ipv4 or Ipv6 address. Only the prefix_len most significant bits may be set in addr; all bits in the host portion of the address must be zero.	No default
prefix_len	uint8	The prefix length of the netmask. E.g. for 192.168.1.0/24, the prefix length is 24, corresponding to a netmask of 255.255.255.0. For Ipv4, prefix_len must be in the range [0, 32]. For Ipv6, prefix_len must be in the range [0, 128].	No default

ENUMS

LookupError

Type: uint32

Defined in fuchsia.net/namelookup.fidl

Name	Value	Description
NOT_FOUND	1	No result was found for this query.
TRANSIENT	2	The lookup failed, but may succeed at a later time. For instance, the network or DNS server may be unreachable.
INVALID_ARGS	3	The lookup failed due to an invalid argument (for instance, the hostname was not encoded correctly, or was too long).
INTERNAL_ERROR	4	The lookup failed due to an internal error.

Type: uint8

Name	Value	Description
V4_ADDRS	1	If the lookup should return IPv4 addresses.
V6_ADDRS	2	If the lookup should return IPv6 addresses.

CONSTANTS

Name	Value	Type	Description
MAX_HOSTNAME_SIZE	255	uint64	The maximum length of a hostname, as per RFC 1035 section 2.3.4.

TYPE ALIASES

Name	Value	Description
Hostname	string[MAX_HOSTNAME_SIZE]	A hostname. Although the maximum length of a domain or hostname is 255 characters, each label within a name must not be longer than 63 characters as per RFC 1035 section 2.3.4. A label in a host name is the alphanumeric characters or hyphens, seperated by a period (e.g. abc.com has two labels, 'abc' and 'com').
