- fnet_netif_unbind_ip6_addr()
This function binds the IPv6 address to the netif interface.
The addr_type parameter defines the way the IPv6 address is assigned to the interface:
FNET_NETIF_IP_ADDR_TYPE_AUTOCONFIGURABLE: value of the addr parameter defines the first 64bits of the bind IPv6 address. The last 64bits of the IPv6 address are overwritten with the Interface Identifier. In case of Ethernet interface, the Interface Identifier is formed from 48-bit MAC address, according to [RFC2464].!FNET_NETIF_IP_ADDR_TYPE_AUTOCONFIGURABLE: value of the addr parameter defines the whole IPv6 address to be bind to the interface.
