      Various asynchronous TCP/IP classes.
End users shouldn't use this module directly - use the reactor APIs instead.
| Class | Connection | Superclass of all socket-based FileDescriptors. | 
| Class | BaseClient | A base class for client TCP (and similiar) sockets. | 
| Class | Client | A transport for a TCP protocol; either TCPv4 or TCPv6. | 
| Class | Server | Serverside socket-stream connection class. | 
| Class | Port | A TCP server port, listening for connections. | 
| Class | Connector | A Connector 
provides of twisted.internet.interfaces.IConnector
for all POSIX-style reactors. | 
  
| Class | _TLSConnectionMixin | Undocumented | 
| Class | _TLSClientMixin | Undocumented | 
| Class | _TLSServerMixin | Undocumented | 
| Class | _SocketCloser | |
| Class | _AbortingMixin | Common implementation of abortConnection. | 
  
| Class | _BaseBaseClient | Code shared with other (non-POSIX) reactors for management of general outgoing connections. | 
| Function | _resolveIPv6 | Resolve an IPv6 literal into an IPv6 address. | 
| Class | _BaseTCPClient | Code shared with other (non-POSIX) reactors for management of outgoing TCP connections (both TCPv4 and TCPv6). | 
Resolve an IPv6 literal into an IPv6 address.
This is necessary to resolve any embedded scope identifiers to the 
relevant sin6_scope_id for use with 
socket.connect(), socket.listen(), or 
socket.bind(); see RFC 3493 for 
more information.
| Parameters | ip | An IPv6 address literal. (type: str) | 
| port | A port number. (type: int) | |
| Returns | a 4-tuple of (host, port, flow, scope), suitable for use as an
IPv6 address. | |
| Raises | socket.gaierror | if either the IP or port is not numeric as it should be. |
