public final class NetPermission
extends BasicPermission
This class is for various network permissions. A NetPermission contains a name but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't.

The name is the name of the network permission ("Authenticator.setDefault", "Authenticator.requestPasswordAuthentication", etc). The naming convention follows the hierarchical property naming convention. Also, an asterisk may appear at the end of the name, following a ".", or by itself, to signify a wildcard match. For example: "Authenticator.*" or "*" is valid, "*foo" or "a*b" is not valid.
