Net::DHCP::Packet::IPv4Utils 💖

okay so bestie, you found the page for Net::DHCP::Packet::IPv4Utils — that's the IPv4 utility bit of the Perl manual pages, aka Net::D...4Utils(3pm), and it's giving "object methods for IPv4 in Net::DHCP" ✨

VERSION 🎀

version 0.7

SYNOPSIS 🦋

use Net::DHCP::Packet::IPv4Utils qw( :all );

DESCRIPTION 🌸

ngl, this module is probably not at all useful on its own — it's a sidekick module, not the main character. 💅

IPv4 UTILITY METHODS 🧚

  • packinet ( STRING ) — takes an IP address that looks like "xx.xx.xx.xx" and turns it into a packed 4-byte string. lowkey iconic: these are simple, never-failing versions of inet_ntoa and inet_aton. no drama, no errors, just vibes. 💖
  • packinets ( STRING ) — hands you a list of IP addresses separated by spaces, and it hands back one packed bytes string. slay. ✨
  • packinets_array( LIST ) — same energy but the input is an array (a list) of IP addresses, and you get a packed bytes string out the other side. 🫶
  • unpackinet ( STRING ) — the reverse girly: takes a packed bytes IP address and gives you back a "xx.xx.xx.xx" string. 🔥
  • unpackinets ( STRING ) — takes a packed bytes list of IP addresses and turns it into a list of "xx.xx.xx.xx" strings, all space delimited. 🌈
  • unpackinets_array ( STRING ) — takes that packed bytes list of IP addresses and returns an array of "xx.xx.xx.xx" strings. array mode, periodt. 👑
