Example 10 - ClassLess network parse

If you don't specify the network cidr, IPNetwork will try to guess the CIDR for you. There are two strategies to guess ClassFull (default) and ClassLess.

ClassFull (default strategy)

is based on the default Class A, B or C networks. IPV4 :

Class A: 0 - 127 with a mask of 255.0.0.0 (/8)
Class B: 128 - 191 with a mask of 255.255.0.0 (/16)
Class C: 192 - 223 with a mask of 255.255.255.0 (/24)

IPV6 : /64

ClassLess

IPV4 : /32 IPV6 : /128

IPv4

IPNetwork defaultParse= IPNetwork.Parse("192.168.0.0"); // default to ClassFull
IPNetwork classFullParse = IPNetwork.Parse("192.168.0.0", CidrGuess.ClassFull);
IPNetwork classLessParse = IPNetwork.Parse("192.168.0.0", CidrGuess.ClassLess);

Console.WriteLine("IPV4 Default Parse : {0}", defaultStrategy);
Console.WriteLine("IPV4 ClassFull Parse : {0}", classFullParse);
Console.WriteLine("IPV4 ClassLess Parse : {0}", classLessParse);

Output

IPV4 Default Parse : 192.168.0.0/24
IPV4 ClassFull Parse : 192.168.0.0/24
IPV4 ClassLess Parse : 192.168.0.0/32

IPv6

IPNetwork defaultParse = IPNetwork.Parse("::1"); // default to ClassFull
IPNetwork classFullParse = IPNetwork.Parse("::1", CidrGuess.ClassFull);
IPNetwork classLessParse = IPNetwork.Parse("::1", CidrGuess.ClassLess);

Console.WriteLine("IPV6 Default Parse : {0}", defaultParse);
Console.WriteLine("IPV6 ClassFull Parse : {0}", classFullParse);
Console.WriteLine("IPV6 ClassLess Parse : {0}", classLessParse);

Output

IPV6 Default Parse : ::/64
IPV6 ClassFull Parse : ::/64
IPV6 ClassLess Parse : ::1/128

IPNetwork utility command line

IPNetwork utility command line take care of complex network, ip, netmask, subnet, cidr calculation for command line. It works with IPv4, it is written in C# and has a light and clean API and is fully unit tested.

Below some examples :
