<p>The <em>inet_network()</em> function is used to translate an Internet
address from dotted decimal format to a 32-bit network IP address, in which the
host part of the IP address is set to zeros.</p>
<p>There are two versions of the API, as shown above. The base i5/OS API uses BSD 4.3
structures and syntax. The other uses syntax and structures compatible with the UNIX 98
programming interface specifications. You can select the UNIX 98 compatible
interface with the <a href="_xopen_source.htm">_XOPEN_SOURCE</a> macro.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>address_string</strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) The Internet address in dotted decimal format that is to be
converted to a 32-bit network IP address.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Authorities</h3>
<p>No authorization is required.</p>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<p><em>inet_network()</em> returns an integer. Possible values are: </p>
<ul>
<li>-1 (unsuccessful)<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>n (where n is the 32-bit network IP address)</li>
</ul>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>When <em>inet_network()</em> fails, <em>errno</em> can be set to one of the
following:</p>
<dl>
<dt><em>[EFAULT]</em></dt>
<dd><p>Bad address.</p></dd>
<dd>The system detected an address which was not valid while attempting to
access the <em>address_string</em> parameter.</p></dd>
<dt><em>[EINVAL]</em></dt>
<dd><p>Parameter not valid.</p></dd>
</dl>
<p>When you develop in C-based languages and an application is compiled with the _XOPEN_SOURCE
macro defined to the value 520 or greater, the <em>inet_network()</em> API is mapped to
<em>qso_inet_network98()</em>.</p>
