Uses of Class
java.net.InetAddress

Packages that use InetAddress
java.lang Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java programming language. 
java.net Provides the classes for implementing networking applications. 
javax.net Provides classes for networking applications. 
javax.net.ssl Provides classes for the secure socket package. 
javax.security.auth.kerberos This package contains utility classes related to the Kerberos network authentication protocol. 
org.ietf.jgss This package presents a framework that allows application developers to make use of security services like authentication, data integrity and data confidentiality from a variety of underlying security mechanisms like Kerberos, using a unified API.
