Description
-----------
This module adds functions for IP address calculation.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the module:
$ScriptInstallUpdate mod/ipcalc;
Usage and invocation
--------------------
### IPCalc
The function `$IPCalc` prints information to terminal, including:
* address
* netmask
* network in CIDR notation
* minimum host address
* maximum host address
* broadcast address
It expects an IP address in CIDR notation as argument.
$IPCalc 192.168.88.1/24;
![IPCalc](ipcalc.d/ipcalc.avif)
### IPCalcReturn
The function `$IPCalcReturn` expects an IP address in CIDR notation as
argument as well. But it does not print to terminal, instead it returns
the information in a named array.
:put ([ $IPCalcReturn 192.168.88.1/24 ]->"broadcast");
![IPCalcReturn](ipcalc.d/ipcalcreturn.avif)
