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 variables.

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.
