New submission from Al <awpythonb...@sunnyside.com>:
https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/ipaddress.html This documentation for the 'ipaddress' IPv4/IPv6 Manipulation Library incorrectly states the address range for 'ipv4_mapped' as ::FFFF/96 (which means 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:FFFF/96). This is just flat out wrong. There are some websites out there, e.g. APNIC, that also have this error. The correct address range can be expressed by any of the following methods: 1) 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:0:0/96 2) ::FFFF:0:0/96 3) 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF::/96 ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 385999 nosy: alwhaley, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: wrong IP address range given for ipv4_mapped type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43079> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
