+family, then it is interpreted as such; otherwise it is looked up using
+the DNS (in the background). The background resolver's address-sorting
+rules apply, and
+.B tripe
+simply takes the first address in the returned list which is of a
+supported address family. Symbolic port numbers are permitted; if
+omitted, the default port 4070 is used.
.TP
.BI "INET " address " \fR[" port \fR]
An Internet socket, naming an IPv4 address and UDP port. On output, the
