  • Wrote a CLI tool to perform various operations on CIDR ranges

    There is also the excellent ipcalc-ng that is available in the official repos of most modern Linux distros (sudo yum install ipcalc in Fedora or sudo apt install ipcalc-ng in Debian or Ubuntu). It provides a lot of these same features, and a whole lot more. I use it a lot!

    I discovered this tool years ago and it's been very useful, but difficult to build on macOS. I filed an issue[0] that remains open.

    Not sure if things have changed since then.

  • Innernet: Open source Rust based Tailscale alternative by Tonari

    I found interactive CIDR visualization tools like https://cidr.xyz/ to be very helpful in understanding the notation.

    I also end up using https://gitlab.com/ipcalc/ipcalc a lot, and am definitely planning on similarly making it easier in the terminal to manage and visualize the CIDRs in innernet networks. I'm hoping innernet can become a fun way to learn networking in a safe (and cheap) virtual environment.
