Parse IP range

Category: Networking

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: string → string

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnetwork

What it does

Given a CIDR range (e.g. 10.0.0.0/24), hyphenated range (e.g. 10.0.0.0 - 10.0.1.0), or a list of IPs and/or CIDR ranges (separated by a new line), this operation provides network information and enumerates all IP addresses in the range. IPv6 is supported but will not be enumerated.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

Arguments are positional. Keep their order when using bake() or Pipeline.then().

Index	Name	UI type	PyChef default	Accepted values / format
`0`	Include network info	`boolean`	`True`	`True` or `False`
`1`	Enumerate IP addresses	`boolean`	`True`	`True` or `False`
`2`	Allow large queries	`boolean`	`False`	`True` or `False`

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = [True, True, False]
result = bake(input_value, [{"op": 'Parse IP range', "args": args}])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = [True, True, False]
transform = Pipeline().then('Parse IP range', *args)
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.parse_ip_range. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.parse_ip_range import run

result = run("example", tuple([True, True, False]))

pychef.operations.by_operation.parse_ip_range.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

value (str | bytes)
args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
