ipv4or6 address
The <ipv4or6 address> inspectors allow you to represent IPv4 and IPv6 addresses as a common type. From these inclusive inspectors, you can derive the corresponding v4 and v6 IP addresses.

Creation
During relay selection, a traceroute-like list of the hops between the client and its relay (the selected server) is recorded. That list is accessible through this inspector. Unlike the 'gateway address' inspector, this inspector includes hops that don't reply as 0.0.0.0.

During relay selection, a traceroute-like list of the hops between the client and its relay (the selected server) is recorded. That list is accessible through this inspector. However, this inspector ignores hops that don't reply. If you need the full list, use the 'full gateway address' inspector.Prior to version 8.0, this inspector returned an <ipv4 address> type.

Properties
Returns one of the eight 16-bit parts (hexadecets) of an ipv4or6 address specified by <integer>. Here zero refers to the highest hexadecet (network or big-endian order). Thus hexadecet 0 refers to the most-significant 16-bits of the 128 bit ipv4or6 address.

Casts
Compresses the IP address, using double colons to stand in for repeated zeroes in the address.Example: ("0:0:0:0:0:ffff:c0a8:16a" as ipv4or6 address) as compressed string - Returns "::ffff:c0a8:16a", a compressed string with a double colon standing in for leading zeroes.

Similar to casting to a string, but with both colon-compression and standard IPv4 representation for the low 32-bits.Example: ("0:0:0:0:0:ffff:c0a8:16a" as ipv4or6 address) as compressed string with ipv4 - Returns "::ffff:192.168.1.106", a compressed string (leading zeroes collapsed to ::) with a four-byte IPv4 address as the lower 32 bits.

Creates a compressed string (replacing multiple zeroes with double colons) with the lower 32 bits in IPv4 format. It includes the zone index (on Windows, typically a number) following a percent sign (%).
