NAME¶
ipv6calc - format, calculate, show information, filter IPv6/IPv4/MAC addresses
SYNOPSIS¶
ipv6calc [OPTIONS] [<input data>]
DESCRIPTION¶
This program formats and calculates IPv6/IPv4/MAC addresses and can do many more tricky things, e.g. includes a pipe filter capability.
OPTIONS¶
If no data is presented as command-line arguments, data is read from standard input.
General options:
- [-d|--debug DEBUGVALUE]
- debug value (bitwise like) can also be set by IPV6CALC_DEBUG environment value
- [-v|--version [-v [-v]]]
- version information (2 optional detail levels)
- [-v|--version -h]
- explanation of feature tokens
- [-V|--verbose]
- be more verbose
- [-h|--help|-?]
- this online help
External database options (depending on compiled-in suppport):
- [--db-ip2location-disable]
- IP2Location support disabled
- [--db-ip2location-dir DIRECTORY]
- IP2Location database directory (default: /usr/share/IP2Location)
- [--db-geoip-disable]
- GeoIP support disabled
- [--db-geoip-dir DIRECTORY]
- GeoIP database directory (default: /usr/share/GeoIP)
Special options:
- [-q|--quiet]
- be more quiet (auto-enabled in pipe mode)
- [-f|--flush]
- flush each line in pipe mode
Usage with new style options:
- [--in|-I INPUT-TYPE]
- specify input type (default: autodetect)
- [--out|-O OUTPUT-TYPE]
- specify output type (sometimes: autodetect)
- [--action|-A ACTION]
- specify action (default: format conversion, sometimes: autodetect)
- [<format option> ...]
- specify format options
- <input data> [...]
- input data
- Available input types:
- [-m] -I|--in -?|-h|--help
- Available output types:
- [-m] -O|--out -?|-h|--help
- Available action types:
- [-m] -A|--action -?|-h|--help
Other usage:
- --showinfo|-i [--machine_readable|-m]
- show information about input data
- --showinfo|-i --show_types
- show available types on '-m'
Usage with shortcut options: <shortcut option> [<format option> ...] <input data>
