check_ipv6(string $ip) : boolean
Checks if the given IP is a valid IPv6 address
stringAn IPv6 address
booleantrue if $ip is a valid IPv6 addresscompress(string $ip) : string
RFC 4291 allows you to compress consecutive zero pieces in an address to '::'. This method expects a valid IPv6 address and compresses consecutive zero pieces to '::'.
Example: FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:101 -> FF01::101 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 -> ::1

RFC 4291 allows you to compress consecutive zero pieces in an address to '::'. This method expects a valid IPv6 address and expands the '::' to the required number of zero pieces.
Example: FF01::101 -> FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:101 ::1 -> 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1

RFC 4291 allows you to represent the last two parts of an IPv6 address using the standard IPv4 representation
Example: 0:0:0:0:0:0:13.1.68.3 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:129.144.52.38
stringAn IPv6 address
array<mixed,string>[0] contains the IPv6 represented part, and [1] the IPv4 represented part
