24 \brief IPv[46]Protocol public header
26 \todo what about OOB data?
28 \todo Implement IP_RECVERR / MSG_ERRQUEUE. This should be placed
29 into an additional protocol facet since IP_RECVERR is only valid
30 for SOCK_DGRAM (UDP) and not SOCK_STREAM (TCP) sockets

77 \todo Is it safe, not to allow setting the interface index on add/drop? what does it do
78 (especially if the local address is given ?). What have I been thinking here ???
80 \todo connect() is only available on stream sockets. We want to access bind() and connect()
81 via the ClientSocketHandle -> see SocketProtocol todo point
