CIDR to netmask is straightforward if tedious -- just binary math. Shells aren't generally that good at it but modern BASH has large enough numbers to handle this.
If you have an older bash, it may generate negative values due to overflowing its 32-bit integers.
please let me know that in unix using c programming language we can do binary to string conversion and vice versa using ltoa and atol but how can we do it in c++ programming language.
thank you in advance. (3 Replies)

ifconfig
IFCONFIG(8) System Manager's Manual IFCONFIG(8)NAME
ifconfig - configure a TCP/IP device
SYNOPSIS
ifconfig [-I ip-device] [-h ipaddr] [-n netmask] [-iv]
DESCRIPTION
Ifconfig initializes a TCP/IP device setting the IP address and/or netmask. It will report the address and netmask set. This command may
be used if the system has not been configured properly yet. It is only used at boot time to set a fixed address for a system without a
physical ethernet. Normally the inet task will find it out by itself from the RARP server.
OPTIONS -h The decimal TCP/IP address to set.
-n The netmask to set.
-i Don't set the IP address or netmask if already set. This way ifconfig cannot interfere if the numbers have been found out by RARP.
-v Report IP address and netmask. This is the default action if there are no other options.
SEE ALSO hostaddr(1), rarpd(8), set_net_default(8), boot(8).
