3 This file defines the EFI IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4)
4 Protocol interface. It is split into the following three main
5 sections:
6 - EFI IPv4 Service Binding Protocol
7 - EFI IPv4 Variable
8 - EFI IPv4 Protocol The EFI IPv4 Protocol provides basic
9 network IPv4 packet I/O services, which includes support for
10 a subset of the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) and
11 may include support for the Internet Group Management
12 Protocol (IGMP).
