How can I convert a String containing the ipv6's machine packet destination to a 16 byte array? I know about getBytes and encodings, but I can't seem to understand which encoding I should use or if I have to convert that String to Hexadecimal or not.
String ipv6 = "2001:0DB8:AC10:FE01:0000:0000:0000:0000";
byte[] bytes = ipv6.getBytes(); //must be a 16 byte array
An example of what I wanna do, just to exemplify. Obs.: I have to convert the String to a 16 byte array Thanks
