# PRIPv6Addr
Type used in the `ipv6.ip` field of the {ref}`PRNetAddr` structure.
## Syntax
```{code}
#include <prio.h>
#if defined(_PR_INET6)
typedef struct in6_addr PRIPv6Addr;
#endif /* defined(_PR_INET6) */
```
## Description
PRIPv6Addr represents a 128-bit IPv6 address. It is equivalent to struct
`in6_addr` in the Berkeley socket interface. {ref}`PRIPv6Addr` is always
manipulated as a byte array. Unlike the IPv4 address (a 4-byte unsigned
integer) or the port number (a 2-byte unsigned integer), it has no
network or host byte order.
