先来回顾一下ServerSocketChannel继承结构树：

//ServerSocketChannel
public abstract class ServerSocketChannel
    extends AbstractSelectableChannel
    implements NetworkChannel

//AbstractSelectableChannel
public abstract class AbstractSelectableChannel
    extends SelectableChannel

//SelectableChannel
public abstract class SelectableChannel
    extends AbstractInterruptibleChannel
    implements Channel

到目前这篇文章之前我们，看完了socket的通道的一个可选择通道分支，在这个过程成，我们
看了一下选择key，通道选择器提供者的定义，今天我们来看另一个分支网络通道：

package java.nio.channels;

import java.net.SocketOption;
import java.net.SocketAddress;
import java.util.Set;
import java.io.IOException;

/**
 * A channel to a network socket.
 *
 * <p> A channel that implements this interface is a channel to a network
 * socket. The {@link #bind(SocketAddress) bind} method is used to bind the
 * socket to a local {@link SocketAddress address}, the {@link #getLocalAddress()
 * getLocalAddress} method returns the address that the socket is bound to, and
 * the {@link #setOption(SocketOption,Object) setOption} and {@link
 * #getOption(SocketOption) getOption} methods are used to set and query socket
 * options.  An implementation of this interface should specify the socket options
 * that it supports.
 *NetworkChannel是一个通道到网络socket的实现，#bind用于绑定一个本地socket地址，
 #getLocalAddress可以返回绑定的地址，#setOption和#getOption用于设置和获取网络通道
 的选项配置。接口的实现应该精确支持的选项配置集。
 * <p> The {@link #bind bind} and {@link #setOption setOption} methods that do
 * not otherwise have a value to return are specified to return the network
 * channel upon which they are invoked. This allows method invocations to be
 * chained. Implementations of this interface should specialize the return type
 * so that method invocations on the implementation class can be chained.
 * #bind和#setOption在调用时，不一定非要返回网络通道，允许被链式调用。网络通道的
 具体实现应该明确#bind和#setOption的返回类型，以便可以链式调用。
 * @since 1.7

从网络通道NetworkChannel的定义来看，主要作用是绑定socket的local地址，获取绑定的地址，
以及设置或获取socket选项。

//SocketOption

/**

 * SocketOption为与socket关联的选项配置

 * methods to set and query the channel's socket options.
 *在网络通道NetworkChannel中定义了设置和获取socket选择配置的方法。
