.Sh DESCRIPTION
These functions convert 16-bit, 32-bit, and 64-bit quantities between network
byte order and host byte order.
On some architectures these routines are defined as
.Dv NULL
macros in the include file
.In netinet/in.h .
On other architectures, the routines are functional when the host byte order is
different from network byte order.
.Pp
These functions are most often used in conjunction with Internet addresses and
ports as returned by
.Xr gethostent 3NSL
and
.Xr getservent 3NSL .
