+<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+
+<para>
+<function>lwres_net_ntop()</function> converts an IP address of
+protocol family <parameter>af</parameter> &mdash; IPv4 or IPv6 &mdash;
+at location <parameter>src</parameter> from network format to its
+conventional representation as a string. For IPv4 addresses, that
+string would be a dotted-decimal. An IPv6 address would be
+represented in colon notation as described in RFC1884.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The generated string is copied to <parameter>dst</parameter> provided
+<parameter>size</parameter> indicates it is long enough to store the
+ASCII representation of the address.
+</para>
+
+</refsect1>
+<refsect1>
+<title>RETURN VALUES</title>
+
+<para>
+If successful, the function returns <parameter>dst</parameter>:
+a pointer to a string containing the presentation format of the
+address. <function>lwres_net_ntop()</function> returns
+<type>NULL</type> and sets the global variable
+<constant>errno</constant> to <errorcode>EAFNOSUPPORT</errorcode> if
+the protocol family given in <parameter>af</parameter> is not
+supported.
