class Net_API IPAddress
	/// This class represents an internet (IP) host
	/// address. The address can belong either to the
	/// IPv4 or the IPv6 address family.
	///
	/// Relational operators (==, !=, <, <=, >, >=) are
	/// supported. However, you must not interpret any
	/// special meaning into the result of these 
	/// operations, other than that the results are
	/// consistent.
	///
	/// Especially, an IPv4 address is never equal to
	/// an IPv6 address, even if the IPv6 address is
	/// IPv4 compatible and the addresses are the same.
	///
	/// IPv6 addresses are supported only if the target platform
	/// supports IPv6.
