About IP Range Calculator
What is the IP Range Calculator?
The IP Range Calculator is a simple yet powerful tool designed to help you quickly calculate network details from an IP address in CIDR notation. Enter an IP like 192.168.1.0/24 to determine the network address, broadcast address, first host, last host, and total number of usable hosts.
How Does It Work?
- Input: Provide an IP address in CIDR format (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24). For IPv4, the tool computes the subnet mask, network address, broadcast address, and host range. For IPv6, it expands the address and calculates the network (lowest) address along with the highest address in the subnet based on the specified prefix length.
- Calculation: The tool converts the IP to a 32-bit integer for IPv4 and uses subnet math to derive the required network details. For IPv6, advanced parsing and BigInt arithmetic are used to accurately compute the address range.
- Output: Results are displayed in an easy-to-read format, showing the network address, broadcast address, first and last host addresses, and the total number of usable hosts for IPv4, and the expanded address, network (lowest) address, and highest address for IPv6.
Additional Features
- Dual Support: Calculate both IPv4 and IPv6 ranges with default values and user-friendly options.
- Customizable Inputs: Pre-configured defaults, dropdown selections, and options tailored for common network configurations make it easy to adjust parameters.
- Accurate & Reliable: Provides precise calculations to aid in network planning, troubleshooting, and configuration.
Why Use the IP Range Calculator?
- Fast & Easy: Get your network details in seconds.
- User-Friendly: A clean and intuitive interface suitable for both beginners and experts.
- Comprehensive: Offers detailed insights into both IPv4 and IPv6 configurations, ensuring you have all the necessary information for effective network management.
