Struct Ipv6ExtHeader 

pub struct Ipv6ExtHeader<'a> { /* private fields */ }

A read wrapper around an IPv6 extension header.

All IPv6 extension headers (except Fragment) share the same layout: a next header field, a length field in units of 8 octets not counting the first 8, and header-specific data.

Implementations

impl<'a> ExtHeader<'a>

pub const fn new_unchecked(buffer: &'a [u8]) -> ExtHeader<'a>

Imbue a raw octet buffer with extension header structure.

pub fn new_checked(buffer: &'a [u8]) -> Result<ExtHeader<'a>>

Shorthand for a combination of new_unchecked and check_len.

pub fn check_len(&self) -> Result<()>

Ensure that no accessor method will panic if called. Returns Err(Error) if the buffer is too short.

pub fn next_header(&self) -> Protocol

Return the next header field.

pub fn header_len(&self) -> usize

Return the length of the whole extension header, in bytes.

pub fn data(&self) -> &'a [u8]

The header-specific data: for the Hop-by-Hop and Destination Options headers, the TLV-encoded options.
