I wasn't good at allocating subnets So, I wrote it with rust!
What is this this tool exactly?
This Rust-based CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) Subnet Calculator is a command-line tool designed to help network administrators and IT professionals efficiently plan and allocate IP network subnets.
## Features
- Parse and analyze existing CIDR networks
- Calculate subnet masks dynamically
- Automatically determine optimal prefix lengths
- Support for multiple subnet allocations
- Detailed subnet information output
## Installation
### Run it Via Binnary
#### Linux
run the binnary
```bash
./subnet
```
#### Windows
just run the subnet.exe
### Build It yourself
#### Prerequisites
- Rust Programming Language (latest stable version recommended)
- Cargo (Rust's package manager)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/cidr-subnet-calculator.git
cd cidr-subnet-calculator
```
### Build the Project
```bash
cargo build --release
```
### Run the Application
```bash
cargo run
```
## Key Concepts
- **CIDR Notation**: Represents IP networks using a compact format (`IP_ADDRESS/PREFIX`)
- **Prefix Length**: Determines the size of the network (smaller prefix = larger network)
- **Host Count**: The number of usable IP addresses in a subnet
## Planned Features
- [ ] Terminal User Interface (TUI) support
- [ ] More advanced network planning features
