public enum IPMode extends Enum<IPMode>
This enum represents the choice between IPv4-only support and combined IPv4+IPv6 support in the IP2Location service.
| Mode | Description | Relative DB Size |
|---|---|---|
| IPV4_ONLY | IPv4 addresses only | 1x |
| IPV4_AND_IPV6 | IPv4 and IPv6 addresses | ~2-3x |
Choose IPv4-only when IPv6 support is not needed to reduce disk space and memory usage.
IP2LocationConfig| Enum Constant and Description |
|---|
IPV4_AND_IPV6Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. |
IPV4_ONLYIPv4 addresses only. |
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
static IPMode | fromIncludeIPv6(boolean includeIPv6)Converts a boolean flag to IPMode. |
String | getDescription()Gets the full description. |
String | getLabel()Gets the short display label. |
boolean | includesIPv6()Converts to a boolean flag. |
String | toString() |
static IPMode | valueOf(String name)Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. |
static IPMode[] | values()Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. |
public static final IPMode IPV4_ONLY
Only IPv4 database files are downloaded and used. IPv6 lookups will return NOT_SUPPORTED status.
public static final IPMode IPV4_AND_IPV6
Both IPv4 and IPv6 database files are downloaded and used. This roughly doubles the disk and memory requirements.
public static IPMode[] values()
for (IPMode c : IPMode.values()) System.out.println(c);
public static IPMode valueOf(String name)
