I realize this is a bit off-topic, but it is relevant in that sometimes when trying to set up a blacklist for a range of IP's, my WHOIS reveals only a CIDR designation for the network I am suspicious of.
For example, 218.175.0.0/16... how do I interpret that? I have read some of the RFC's on CIDR notation, but it still boggles my mind. Would that mean that they own the entire range from 218.175.0.0-218.175.254.254? Is there an easy way to read CIDR? or a tool that will do the conversion? Thanks for any and all help. ================================================ | Doug Starkey | | Network Administrator | | Pecan Deluxe Candy Company | | 2570 Lone Star Drive | | Dallas, TX 75212-6308 | | e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | voice: 214-631-3669 Ext. 108 | | fax: 214-631-5833 | ================================================ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
