Does anyone know of a library, sample code, etc. to help Oracle PL/SQL do CIDR math?



Not exactly sample code, but: I do that with MySQL by storing the IP as
its integer value and using simple comparisons to see if that stored
value is within the range of values that a given CIDR mask represents.
Works great for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

I do it in MySQL by storing the IP as an integer and the mask as an integer and using bitwise operators in the SELECT.

Just something to think about...
