For IPv4 addresses, that string would be a dotted-decimal. An IPv6 address would be represented in colon notation as described in RFC1884.

p The generated string is copied to .Fa dst provided .Fa size indicates it is long enough to store the ASCII representation of the address. .Sh RETURN VALUES
p If successful, the function returns .Fa dst : a pointer to a string containing the presentation format of the address. .Fn lwres_net_ntop returns .Dv NULL and sets the global variable .Li errno to .Er EAFNOSUPPORT if the protocol family given in .Fa af is not supported. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr RFC1884 , .Xr inet_ntop 3 , .Xr errno 3 .
