Gio.IPv6TclassMessage¶

class — extends SocketControlMessage

Contains the Traffic Class byte of an IPv6 header.

This consists of the DSCP field as per RFC 2474, and the ECN field as per RFC 3168.

It may be received using Socket.receive_message over UDP sockets (i.e. sockets in the G_SOCKET_FAMILY_IPV6 family with G_SOCKET_TYPE_DATAGRAM type). The message is not meant for sending. To set Traffic Class field to be used in datagrams sent on a Socket use:

g_socket_set_option (socket, IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_TCLASS, <TC value>, &error);
