Uses of InetAddress in java.lang
 

Methods in java.lang with parameters of type InetAddress
 void SecurityManager.checkMulticast(InetAddress maddr)
          Throws a SecurityException if the calling thread is not allowed to use (join/leave/send/receive) IP multicast.
 void SecurityManager.checkMulticast(InetAddress maddr, byte ttl)
          Throws a SecurityException if the calling thread is not allowed to use (join/leave/send/receive) IP multicast.
 

Uses of InetAddress in java.net

          Binds this socket to the specified port number on the specified host.
 void MulticastSocket.joinGroup(InetAddress mcastaddr)
          Joins a multicast group.Its behavior may be affected by setInterface.
 void MulticastSocket.leaveGroup(InetAddress mcastaddr)
          Leave a multicast group.
 void MulticastSocket.setInterface(InetAddress inf)
          Set the multicast network interface used by methods whose behavior would be affected by the value of the network interface.
protected abstract  void DatagramSocketImpl.bind(int lport, InetAddress laddr)
          Binds a datagram socket to a local port and address.
protected abstract  int DatagramSocketImpl.peek(InetAddress i)
          Peek at the packet to see who it is from.

          Ask the authenticator that has been registered with the system for a password.
 

Constructors in java.net with parameters of type InetAddress
DatagramSocket(int port, InetAddress laddr)
          Creates a datagram socket, bound to the specified local address.
Socket(InetAddress address, int port)
          Creates a stream socket and connects it to the specified port number at the specified IP address.
Socket(String host, int port, InetAddress localAddr, int localPort)
