+Perl-IO-Socket-IP is a software package that provides support for the TCP/IP protocol family. It provides an object-oriented interface for creating and connecting to TCP/IP sockets, and provides an interface for creating, sending and receiving data over these sockets. It also provides support for IPv4 and IPv6 addressing.

+%description
+This module provides a protocol-independent way to use IPv4 and IPv6
+sockets, intended as a replacement for IO::Socket::INET. Most constructor
+arguments and methods are provided in a backward-compatible way. For a
+list of known differences, see the IO::Socket::INET INCOMPATIBILITES
+section below.
