in reply to Re^3: ip range for config files
in thread ip range for config files

You know, I'll bet everyone using these modules wants the CIDR format...actually I don't. I want an array of individual IP addresses back from a CIDR format (or a IP-Range format)

I want to give the user an option to specify a range of IP addresses in their favorite format and then get the array back...

I am very likely very CONFUSED...

Say I have a config file of hosts/devices to ping...

# Ping me list
host1; 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.10; 10.0.0.0/8; host2

I am looking for a proper format to allow. right now, you have to list 1 IP or hostname on EACH line ;-(
