Detailed Description

IPv6 RAW Socket Protocol.
Socket Handle typedefs:
RawV6ClientSocketHandle (ProtocolClientSocketHandle)
Policy Interface:
ClientSocketHandle::read(), ClientSocketHandle::readfrom(), ClientSocketHandle::writeto(), ClientSocketHandle::bind(), ClientSocketHandle::local()
Address Type:
INet6Address
RawV6SocketProtocol provides an internet protocol raw socket based on IPv6 addressing. This socket will put data written to it onto the IPv6 layer: if you call writeto don't include the header! On the other hand `read` will return the packet data on top of the IPv6 layer, excluding the IP header. Note: This behaviour is differs from the behaviour of IPv4 RAW sockets.

This class is utilized as the protocol class of the ProtocolClientSocketHandle via the Socket Handle typedefs above.

Attention:
If socket handle with ConnectedRawV6SocketProtocol is connected via INet6SocketAddress, the port number is interpreted as protocol number for IPv6 layer. Please refer manpage: "man 7 ipv6".
