+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+Ethernet addresses are represented by the
+following structure:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+struct ether_addr {
+        u_char  ether_addr_octet[6];
+};
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn ether_ntoa
+function converts this structure into an ASCII string of the form
+``xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'', consisting of 6 hexadecimal numbers separated
+by colons.
+It returns a pointer to a static buffer that is reused for
+each call.
+The
+.Fn ether_aton
+converts an ASCII string of the same form and to a structure
+containing the 6 octets of the address.
+It returns a pointer to a
+static structure that is reused for each call.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn ether_ntohost
+and
+.Fn ether_hostton
+functions interrogate the data base mapping host names to Ethernet
+addresses,
+.Pa /etc/ethers .
+The
+.Fn ether_ntohost
+function looks up the given Ethernet address and writes the associated
+host name into the character buffer passed.
+The
+.Fn ether_hostton
+function looks up the given host name and writes the associated
+Ethernet address into the structure passed.
+Both functions return
+zero if they find the requested host name or address, and -1 if not.
+Each call reads
+.Pa /etc/ethers
+from the beginning; if a + appears alone on a line in the file, then
+.Fn ether_hostton
+will consult the
+.Pa ethers.byname
+YP map, and
+.Fn ether_ntohost
+will consult the
+.Pa ethers.byaddr
+YP map.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn ether_line
+function parses a line from the
+.Pa /etc/ethers
+file and fills in the passed ``struct ether_addr'' and character
+buffer with the Ethernet address and host name on the line.
+It returns zero if the line was successfully parsed and -1 if not.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fa hostname
+buffer for
+.Fn ether_line
+and
+.Fn ether_ntohost
+should be at least
+.Dv MAXHOSTNAMELEN
++ 1
+characters long, to prevent a buffer overflow during parsing.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Fn ether_ntoa ,
+.Fn ether_aton ,
+.Fn ether_ntohost ,
+.Fn ether_hostton ,
+and
+.Fn ether_line
+functions were adopted from SunOS and appeared in
+.Nx 1.0 .
+.Sh BUGS
+The data space used by these functions is static; if future use
+requires the data, it should be copied before any subsequent calls to
+these functions overwrite it.
