Comment on Ipcalc – Command line CIDR calculator with IPv6 support

Comments

For another cli based IP address utility check out IPinfo.io's CLI: https://github.com/ipinfo/cli

It doesn't currently support calculations, but it does support conversion of start-end ranges to CIDRs (via `range2cidr` and `cidr2range`) and `grepip`. If you just want to get details for an IP it's gives a great overview, and supports bulk lookup too:

I wish they had a hacker/developer pricing tier. I don't need 150k requests with their full feature set. I need 200/month.

It's free for up to 50k req/month.

EDIT: Ah, do you mean for the full data set, at lower request volumes? What hacker/dev price point for all data at low volumes do you think makes sense?

1000/mo. for free? Could be a good conversion funnel for paid accounts. Any serious user will naturally graduate to requiring a paid plan.
