Example text

An IPv6 link-local address is synonymous with an IPv4 APIPA address discussed earlier in the chapter. For example, consider host A, which has the link-local address fe80::250:8bff:fea0:92ed%5 and host B, which has the link-local address fe80::250:daff:fec3:9e34%4. If host A issues a connect to host B, it would use the destination address of B with its own scope ID that can reach host B. The address to connect to would be fe80::250:daff:fec3:9e34%5. Site-local addresses are IPv6 addresses that are reachable only on the local network environment, such as the corporate network at a particular site.

If a protocol is capable of multiple behaviors, each distinct behavior type has its own catalog entry within the system. For example, if you install TCP/IP on your system, there will be two IP entries: one for TCP, which is reliable and connection-oriented, and one for UDP, which is unreliable and connectionless. 1 function EnumProtocols, the necessary function for Windows CE. The only difference is that WSAEnumProtocols returns an array of WSAPROTOCOL_INFO structures, whereas EnumProtocols returns an array of PROTOCOL_INFO structures that contain fewer fields than the WSAPROTOCOL_INFO structure (but more or less the same information).

Thus the possibility exists that when a user's application requests to read a message, the user's system might have received only a portion of the message. If the protocol supports partial messages, the reader is notified that the data being returned is only a part of the whole message. If the protocol does not support partial messages, the underlying network stack holds onto the pieces until the whole message arrives. If for some reason the whole message does not arrive, most unreliable protocols that lack support for partial messages will simply discard the incomplete datagram.
