inet_network (const char p)

in_addr_t 

Converts a string from the IPv4 numbers-and-dots notation to the binary data in host byte order.

inet_ntoa (struct in_addr in)

char

const char  

Converts a network address in the specified address family to a string.

inet_aton (const char s0, struct in_addr *dest)

int 

Converts an IP address from the string format to the 32-bit binary format in network byte order.

inet_makeaddr (in_addr_t n, in_addr_t h)

struct in_addr

inet_lnaof (struct in_addr in)

in_addr_t 

Converts an IP address into a host ID in host byte order without network bits.

inet_netof (struct in_addr in)

in_addr_t 

Extracts the network number from the in_addr structure and converts it to the host byte order.
