The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Net::Subnets
DSLIP: bdpOp
description: functions for large scale subnetting
userid: SRI (Sebastian Riedel)
chapterid: 5 (Networking_Devices_IPC)
communities:
similar:
Net::IP::Match
rationale:
Why not Net::IP::Match?
1. Net::IP::Match is an unflexible perl source filter with an
unusual interface, Net::Subnets is object oriented and quite simple.
2. Net::IP::Match works fast for a few subnets but they have to be
hardcoded, Net::Subnets works fine for even a million dynamically
loaded subnets.
3. I have planned some more subnetting related features for future
releases.
Why not name it Net::IP::Subnets?
In fact the first version was named so, but I talked to a lot
people and all expected it to be Net::Subnets, so I decided that
there is no reason not to rename it. In addition it enables me to
add subnetting features that are not IP related, if there are any?
