Uncompresses an IPv6 address


Description Description

RFC 4291 allows you to compress consecutive zero pieces in an address to ‘::’. This method expects a valid IPv6 address and expands the ‘::’ to the required number of zero pieces.

Example: FF01::101 -> FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:101 ::1 -> 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1


Parameters Parameters
