Examples--Controlling Output to Select IPv4 and IPv6 Information

When you specify the DEFAULT_IP=BOTH or DEFAULT_IP=IP_VERSION6 variable in the inet_type file:

% ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=1000849 mtu 8232 index 1
        inet 120.10.0.1 netmask ff000000 
le0: flags=1000843 mtu 1500 index 2
        inet 120.46.86.54 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 120.46.86.255
        ether 8:0:20:56:a8 
lo0: flags=2000849 mtu 8252 index 1
        inet6 ::1/128 
le0: flags=2000841 mtu 1500 index 2
        ether 8:0:20:56:a8 
        inet6 fe80::a00:fe73:56a8/10 
le0:1: flags=2080841 mtu 1500 index 2
        inet6 fec0::56:a00:fe73:56a8/64 
le0:2: flags=2080841 mtu 1500 index 2
        inet6 2::56:a00:fe73:56a8/64

When you specify the DEFAULT_IP=IP_VERSION4 variable in the inet_type file:

% ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=849 mtu 8232
        inet 120.10.0.1 netmask ff000000 
le0: flags=843 mtu 1500
        inet 120.46.86.54 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 120.46.86.255
        ether 8:0:20:56:a8
