    Description

      For example, ::1 and 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 should yield the same output.

      The system property `jdk.net.hosts.file` can be defined to effect InetAddress name and address resolution calls, i.e getByXXX. The value of the system property is a filename that contains the mappings. The structure of this file is equivalent to that of the /etc/hosts file.

      For example:
        10.2.3.4 testHost.testDomain
        ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
