Instance Variable prefixLen The length of the suffix. (type: int)
Instance Variable suffix An IPv6 address suffix in network order. (type: bytes)
Instance Variable prefix If specified, a name which will be used as a prefix for other A6 records. (type: Name)
Instance Variable bytes The length of the prefix. (type: int)
Instance Variable ttl The maximum number of seconds which this record should be cached. (type: int)
Method __init__
Method encode Write a representation of this object to the given file object.

prefixLen =
The length of the suffix. (type: int)
suffix =
An IPv6 address suffix in network order. (type: bytes)
prefix =
If specified, a name which will be used as a prefix for other A6 records. (type: Name)

def __init__(self, prefixLen=0, suffix='::', prefix='', ttl=None): (source)
ParameterssuffixAn IPv6 address suffix in in RFC 2373 format. (type: bytes or unicode)
prefixAn IPv6 address prefix for other A6 records. (type: bytes or unicode)
def encode(self, strio, compDict=None): (source)

Write a representation of this object to the given file object.

ParametersstrioThe stream to which to write bytes (type: File-like object)
compDictA dictionary of backreference addresses that have already been written to this stream and that may be used for compression. (type: dict or None)
def decode(self, strio, length=None): (source)

Reconstruct an object from data read from the given file object.

ParametersstrioThe stream from which bytes may be read (type: File-like object)
lengthThe number of bytes in this RDATA field. Most implementations can ignore this value. Only in the case of records similar to TXT where the total length is in no way encoded in the data is it necessary. (type: int or None)
