netmask

NAME
netmask - a netmask generation and conversion program
SYNOPSIS
netmask [ options ] spec [ spec ... ]
DESCRIPTION
This program accepts and produces a variety of common network address and netmask formats. Not only can it convert address and netmask
notations, but it will optimize the masks to generate the smallest list of rules. This is very handy if you've ever configured a firewall
or router and some nasty network administrator before you decided that base 10 numbers were good places to start and end groups of
machines.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
Print a summary of the options
-v, --version
Print the version number
-d, --debug
Print status/progress information
-s, --standard
Output address/netmask pairs
-c, --cidr
Output CIDR format address lists
-i, --cisco
Output Cisco style address lists
-r, --range
Output ip address ranges
-x, --hex
Output address/netmask pairs in hex
-o, --octal
Output address/netmask pairs in octal
-b, --binary
Output address/netmask pairs in binary
-n, --nodns
Disable DNS lookups for addresses

address
One address.
address1:address2
All addresses from address1 to address2.

BUGS
Let me know if you find any. This man page is a bit more simplistic than I'd like, but I've forgotten most of the groff I once knew.
