  my $ip = new Net::IP ('193.0.1/24') or die (Net::IP::Error());
  print ("IP  : ".$ip->ip()."\n");

  print ("Bin : ".$ip->binip()."\n");
  print ("Int : ".$ip->intip()."\n");
  print ("Mask: ".$ip->mask()."\n");
  print ("Last: ".$ip->last_ip()."\n");

  print ("Size: ".$ip->size()."\n");
  print ("Type: ".$ip->iptype()."\n");
  print ("Rev:  ".$ip->reverse_ip()."\n");

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides functions to deal with B<IPv4/IPv6> addresses. The module
can be used as a class, allowing the user to instantiate IP objects, which can
be single IP addresses, prefixes, or ranges of addresses. There is also a 
procedural way of accessing most of the functions. Most subroutines can take 
either B<IPv4> or B<IPv6> addresses transparently.

=head1 OBJECT-ORIENTED INTERFACE

=head2 Object Creation

A Net::IP object can be created from a single IP address:
  
  $ip = new Net::IP ('193.0.1.46') || die ...

Or from a Classless Prefix (a /24 prefix is equivalent to a C class):

$ip = new Net::IP ('195.114.80/24') || die ...

Or from a range of addresses:

$ip = new Net::IP ('20.34.101.207 - 201.3.9.99') || die ...
  
Or from a address plus a number:

$ip = new Net::IP ('20.34.10.0 + 255') || die ...
  
The new() function accepts IPv4 and IPv6 addresses:

$ip = new Net::IP ('dead:beef::/32') || die ...

Optionnaly, the function can be passed the version of the IP. Otherwise, it
tries to guess what the version is (see B<_is_ipv4()> and B<_is_ipv6()>).

$ip = new Net::IP ('195/8',4); # Class A

=head1 OBJECT METHODS

Most of these methods are front-ends for the real functions, which use a 
procedural interface. Most functions return undef on failure, and a true
value on success. A detailed description of the procedural interface is 
provided below.

=head2 set

Set an IP address in an existing IP object. This method has the same 
functionality as the new() method, except that it reuses an existing object to
store the new IP.

C<$ip-E<gt>set('130.23.1/24',4);>

Like new(), set() takes two arguments - a string used to build an IP address,
prefix, or range, and optionally, the IP version of the considered address.

It returns an IP object on success, and undef on failure.

=head2 error

Return the current object error string. The error string is set whenever one 
of the methods produces an error. Also, a global, class-wide B<Error()> 
function is avaliable.

C<warn ($ip-E<gt>error());>

=head2 errno

Return the current object error number. The error number is set whenever one 
of the methods produces an error. Also, a global B<$ERRNO> variable is set
when an error is produced.

C<warn ($ip-E<gt>errno());>

=head2 ip

Return the IP address (or first IP of the prefix or range) in quad format, as
a string.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>ip());>

=head2 binip

Return the IP address as a binary string of 0s and 1s.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>binip());>

=head2 prefixlen

Return the length in bits of the current prefix.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>prefixlen());>

=head2 version

Return the version of the current IP object (4 or 6).

C<print ($ip-E<gt>version());>

=head2 size

Return the number of IP addresses in the current prefix or range.
Use of this function requires Math::BigInt.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>size());>

=head2 binmask

Return the binary mask of the current prefix, if applicable.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>binmask());>

=head2 mask

Return the mask in quad format of the current prefix.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>mask());>

=head2 prefix

Return the full prefix (ip+prefix length) in quad (standard) format.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>prefix());>

=head2 print

Print the IP object (IP/Prefix or First - Last)

C<print ($ip-E<gt>print());>

=head2 intip

Convert the IP in integer format and return it as a Math::BigInt object.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>intip());>

=head2 hexip

Return the IP in hex format

C<print ($ip-E<gt>hexip());>

=head2 hexmask

Return the mask in hex format

C<print ($ip-E<gt>hexmask());>

=head2 short

Return the IP in short format:  
	IPv4 addresses: 194.5/16
	IPv6 addresses: ab32:f000::

C<print ($ip-E<gt>short());>

=head2 iptype

Return the IP Type - this describes the type of an IP (Public, Private, 
Reserved, etc.) See procedural interface ip_iptype for more details.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>iptype());>

=head2 reverse_ip

Return the reverse IP for a given IP address (in.addr. format).

C<print ($ip-E<gt>reserve_ip());>

=head2 last_ip

Return the last IP of a prefix/range in quad format.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>last_ip());>

=head2 last_bin

Return the last IP of a prefix/range in binary format.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>last_bin());>

=head2 last_int

Return the last IP of a prefix/range in integer format.

C<print ($ip-E<gt>last_int());>

=head2 find_prefixes

This function finds all the prefixes that can be found between the two 
addresses of a range. The function returns a list of prefixes.

C<@list = $ip-E<gt>find_prefixes($other_ip));>

=head2 bincomp

Binary comparaison of two IP objects. The function takes an operation 
and an IP object as arguments. It returns a boolean value.

The operation can be one of:
lt: less than (smaller than)
le: smaller or equal to
gt: greater than
ge: greater or equal to

C<if ($ip-E<gt>bincomp('lt',$ip2) {...}>

=head2 binadd

Binary addition of two IP objects. The value returned is an IP object.

C<my $sum = $ip-E<gt>binadd($ip2);>

=head2 aggregate

Aggregate 2 IPs - Append one range/prefix of IPs to another. The last address
of the first range must be the one immediately preceding the first address of 
the second range. A new IP object is returned.

C<my $total = $ip-E<gt>aggregate($ip2);>

=head2 overlaps

Check if two IP ranges/prefixes overlap each other. The value returned by the 
function should be one of:
	$IP_PARTIAL_OVERLAP (ranges overlap) 
	$IP_NO_OVERLAP      (no overlap)
	$IP_A_IN_B_OVERLAP  (range2 contains range1)
	$IP_B_IN_A_OVERLAP  (range1 contains range2)
	$IP_IDENTICAL       (ranges are identical)
	undef               (problem)

C<if ($ip-E<gt>overlaps($ip2)==$IP_A_IN_B_OVERLAP) {...};>

=head2 looping

The C<+> operator is overloaded in order to allow looping though a whole 
range of IP addresses:

my $ip = new Net::IP ('195.45.6.7 - 195.45.6.19') || die;
  # Loop
  do {
      print $ip->ip(), "\n";
  } while (++$ip);

The ++ operator returns undef when the last address of the range is reached.

=head2 auth

Return IP authority information from the IP::Authority module

C<$auth = ip->auth ();>

Note: IPv4 only

=head1 PROCEDURAL INTERFACE

These functions do the real work in the module. Like the OO methods, 
most of these return undef on failure. In order to access error codes
and strings, instead of using $ip-E<gt>error() and $ip-E<gt>errno(), use the
global functions C<Error()> and C<Errno()>.

The functions of the procedural interface are not exported by default. In
order to import these functions, you need to modify the use statement for
the module:

C<use Net::IP qw(:PROC);>

=head2 Error

Returns the error string corresponding to the last error generated in the 
module. This is also useful for the OO interface, as if the new() function 
fails, we cannot call $ip-E<gt>error() and so we have to use Error().

warn Error();

=head2 Errno

Returns a numeric error code corresponding to the error string returned by 
Error.

=head2 ip_iptobin

=head1 BUGS

The Math::BigInt library is needed for functions that use integers. These are
ip_inttobin, ip_bintoint, and the size method. In a next version, 
Math::BigInt will become optionnal.
