tuple, and the fields depend on the address type. The general tuple form is
``(addr_type, v1, v2, v3 [, scope])``, where:
- - *addr_type* is one of TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ, TIPC_ADDR_NAME, or
- TIPC_ADDR_ID.
- - *scope* is one of TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE, TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE, and
- TIPC_NODE_SCOPE.
- - If *addr_type* is TIPC_ADDR_NAME, then *v1* is the server type, *v2* is
+ - *addr_type* is one of :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ`, :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAME`,
+ or :const:`TIPC_ADDR_ID`.
+ - *scope* is one of :const:`TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE`, :const:`TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE`, and
+ :const:`TIPC_NODE_SCOPE`.
+ - If *addr_type* is :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAME`, then *v1* is the server type, *v2* is
the port identifier, and *v3* should be 0.
- If *addr_type* is TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ, then *v1* is the server type, *v2*
+ If *addr_type* is :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ`, then *v1* is the server type, *v2*
is the lower port number, and *v3* is the upper port number.

+- A tuple ``(interface, )`` is used for the :const:`AF_CAN` address family,
+ where *interface* is a string representing a network interface name like
+ ``'can0'``. The network interface name ``''`` can be used to receive packets
+ from all network interfaces of this family.

- Certain other address families (:const:`AF_BLUETOOTH`, :const:`AF_PACKET`)
support specific representations.
