 //! This module provides various constants relating to the Bitcoin network
 //! protocol, such as protocol versioning and magic header bytes.
 //!
+//! The [`Network`][1] type implements the [`ConsensusDecodable`][2] and
+//! [`ConsensusEncodable`][3] and encodes the magic bytes of the given
+//! network

+//! [1]: enum.Network.html

+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! use bitcoin::network::constants::Network;
+//! use bitcoin::network::serialize::serialize;
+//!
+//! let network = Network::Bitcoin;
+//! let bytes = serialize(&network).unwrap();
+//!
+//! assert_eq!(&bytes[..], &[0xF9, 0xBE, 0xB4, 0xD9]);
