is_multicast {iptools} | R Documentation

## Logical checks for IP addresses

### Description

Check whether an IP address is valid with `is_valid`, IPv4 with `is_ipv4`, IPv6 with `is_ipv6`, or multicast (intended to point to multiple machines) with `is_multicast`

### Usage

    is_multicast(ip_addresses)

    is_ipv4(ip_addresses)

    is_ipv6(ip_addresses)

    is_valid(ip_addresses)

### Arguments

`ip_addresses` | a vector of IP addresses

### Value

a vector of TRUE or FALSE values, indicating whether an IP is multicast or not, or NA values if the IP addresses are NAs.

### See Also

`ip_classify` for character rather than logical classification.

### Examples

    # This is multicast
    is_multicast("224.0.0.2")

    # It's also IPv4
    is_ipv4("224.0.0.2")

    # It's not IPv6
    is_ipv6("224.0.0.2")
