Net::Connection::Sniffer::Util -- netaddr utilities
use Net::Connection::Sniffer::Util; my $ip = newcidr24 Net::Connection::Sniffer::Util($netaddr); my $ipcopy = $ip->copy; if ($someip->within($ip)) { do something... if ($ip->contains($someip)) { do something... if ($ip1->equal($ip2)) { do something
Net::Connection::Sniffer::Util is a lite weight perl module to do NetAddr::IP like operations on ip addresses in either 32 or 128 bit formats.
my $ip = newcidr24;
Create a blessed address object with cidr/24 network/broadcast bounds (assumes 32 bit addressing), for ipv6, this will be cidr/120
my $ipcopy = $ip->copy;
Copy a blessed network address object to a new blessed object;
Returns 'undef' if $ip is not a Net::Connection::Sniffer::Util object.
$rv = $someip->within($ip);
Check to see if $someip is within the cidr of $ip. i.e.
network address <= $someip <= broadcast address input: ip object for range check returns: true if within, else false
Returns 'undef' if $someip and $ip are not Net::Connection::Sniffer::Util objects.
$rv = $ip->contains($someip);
Check to see if $ip is within the cidr range of $someip. i.e.
This is the logical compliment of the within method.
$rv = $ip1->equal($ip2);
Check if IP1 equal IP2
input: ip2 object returns: true/false
