	@header SCNetworkReachability
	The SCNetworkReachabilityXXX() APIs allow an application to determine the status
	of a system's current network configuration and the reachability
	of a target host.  In addition, the reachability can be monitored
	with a notification being provided when/if the status has changed.

	The term "reachable" reflects whether a data packet, sent by
	an application into the network stack, can be sent to the
	the target host/address.  Please note that there is no
	guarantee that the data packet will actually be received by
	the host.
