Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Bash script for ping in your own subnet Post 302512454 by KenJackson on Sunday 10th of April 2011 11:50:02 AM

You're assuming it's a 24-bit subnet. That's usually a good assumption with a local address like 192.168.x.x. But there's no reason it couldn't be a 16-bit or 26-bit or other size subnet (16-bit or larger for 192.168).

The Genmask column of the netstat -nr command output reveals the size of the netmask. A 24-bit subnet is shown as 255.255.255.0. A 27-bit subnet would be 255.255.255.224. Both are legitimate.

To answer your 3-number question:
Code:
IP=192.168.1.5
SUBNET=${IP%.*}
echo $SUBNET
192.168.1

NAME
tgt-setup-lun - creates a target, adds a device to the target and defines initiators that can connect to the target SYNOPSIS
tgt-setup-lun -d device -n target_name [initiator_IP1 initiator_IP2 ...] [-h] DESCRIPTION
Starts tgtd if necessary and creates a target according to the supplied target_name. The format of the target name is as follows: iqn.2001-04.com.<hostname>-<target_name> The target name must be unique. The script then adds the requested device to the target. If specific IP addresses are defined, it adds them to the list of allowed initia- tors for that target. If no IP addresses is defined, it defines that the target accepts any initiator. EXAMPLES
Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections only from 192.168.10.81: tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target 192.168.10.81 Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections only from 192.168.10.81 and 192.168.10.82: tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target 192.168.10.81 192.168.10.82 Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections from any initiator: tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target Display help: tgt-setup-lun -h AUTHOR
