cl-cidr-notation

A Common Lisp library for converting ip addresses and CIDR blocks from integer to string representations and vice versa

The functions are optimized for speed.

EG: "1.2.3.4" => 16909060 , 32 EG: "1.2.3.4/30" => 16909060 , 30

This library was spawned by this paste: http://paste.lisp.org/display/139246

cidr-string, ip-string

Convert integers to strings

range-string

Given two integer ips, produce a "0.0.0.0-0.0.0.1" representation

parse-cidr, parse-ip

Convert strings into integers, throwing meaningful cidr-parse-error if it fails

Speed Results

This is probably not super meaningful, but at least gives some benchmarks for the current speeds Im seeing
