PRIPS(1)		    General Commands Manual		      PRIPS(1)

NAME
       prips --	print the IP addresses in a given range

SYNOPSIS
       prips [-c] [-d delim] [-e exclude] [-f format] [-i incr]	start end
       prips [-c] [-d delim] [-e exclude] [-f format] [-i incr]	CIDR-block
       prips -h

DESCRIPTION
       The  prips tool can be used to print all	of the IP addresses in a given
       range.  It can enhance tools that only work on one host at a time, e.g.
       whois(1).

       The prips tool accepts the following command-line options:

       -c      Print the range in CIDR notation.

       -d delim
	       Set the delimiter to the	character with ASCII code delim	 where
	       0 <= delim <= 255.

       -e <x.x.x,x.x>
	       Exclude ranges from the output.

       -f format
	       Set the format of addresses (hex, dec, or dot).

       -h      Show summary of options.

       -i incr
	       Set the increment to 'x'.

ENVIRONMENT
       The  prips  tool's operation is not influenced by any environment vari-
       ables.

FILES
       The prips tool's	operation is not influenced by any files.

EXAMPLES
       Display all the addresses in a reserved subnet:

	     prips 192.168.32.0	192.168.32.255

       The same, using CIDR notation:

	     prips 192.168.32.0/24

       Display only the	usable addresses in a class A reserved subnet using  a
       space instead of	a newline for a	delimiter:

	     prips -d 32 10.0.0.1 10.255.255.255

       Display every fourth address in a weird block:

	     prips -i 4	192.168.32.7 192.168.33.5

       Determine the smallest CIDR block containing two	addresses:

	     prips -c 192.168.32.5 192.168.32.11

DIAGNOSTICS
       The prips utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error	occurs.
