IPPROTO_IP(2const) IPPROTO_IP(2const)
IPPROTO_IP - Linux IPv4 protocol socket options
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
#include <netinet/in.h> /* Definition of IP* constants */
#include <sys/socket.h>
int setsockopt(int sockfd, IPPROTO_IP, int opt,
const void val[size], size_t size);
int getsockopt(int sockfd, IPPROTO_IP, int opt,
void val[size], size_t size);
IP supports some protocol-specific socket options that can be set
with setsockopt(2) and read with getsockopt(2). The socket option
level for IP is IPPROTO_IP.
The following socket options are supported.
IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP(2const)
IP_ADD_SOURCE_MEMBERSHIP(2const)
IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT(2const)
IP_BLOCK_SOURCE(2const)
IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP(2const)
