Methods summary
`public static string`	# `removeNetmaskSpec( string $ip )` Removes a possible existing netmask specification of an IP address. Removes a possible existing netmask specification of an IP address. Parameters `$ip` `string` the (compressed) IP as Hex representation Returns `string` the IP the without netmask Since 1.1.0
`public static string`	# `Uncompress( string $ip )` Uncompresses an IPv6 address Uncompresses an IPv6 address RFC 2373 allows you to compress zeros in an address to '::'. This function expects an valid IPv6 address and expands the '::' to the required zeros. Example: FF01::101 -> FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:101 ::1 -> 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 Parameters `$ip` `string` a valid IPv6-address (hex format) Returns `string` the uncompressed IPv6-address (hex format)
`public static array`	# `SplitV64( string $ip )` Splits an IPv6 address into the IPv6 and a possible IPv4 part Splits an IPv6 address into the IPv6 and a possible IPv4 part RFC 2373 allows you to note the last two parts of an IPv6 address as an IPv4 compatible address Example: 0:0:0:0:0:0:13.1.68.3 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:129.144.52.38 Parameters `$ip` `string` a valid IPv6-address (hex format) Returns `array` [0] contains the IPv6 part, [1] the IPv4 part (hex format)
`public static boolean`	# `checkIPv6( string $ip )` Checks an IPv6 address Checks an IPv6 address Checks if the given IP is IPv6-compatible Parameters `$ip` `string` a valid IPv6-address Returns `boolean` true if $ip is an IPv6 address
