Abstract

Have you ever needed a network interface’s hardware address, but had to resort to executing an external program to obtain this information because Java did not provide the appropriate API? Java SE 6 addresses this need and more by adding a variety of new networking features to Java:

  • CookieHandler implementation

  • Internationalized domain names

  • Lightweight HTTP server

  • Network parameters

  • SPNEGO HTTP authentication
