## Remarks

The IPv6 counterpart of [IPV4\_INT\_SIZE](https://imqueue.org/api/net/latest/net.ipv4_int_size/). Because a network record stores a start and an end address, an IPv6 record occupies 32 bytes against IPv4's 8 — which is why [NetworkList](https://imqueue.org/api/net/latest/net.networklist/) keeps the two families in separate buffers rather than one mixed list.
