IPv6 address extractor

samc

I'm looking for any utilities that could help to extract a range of IPv6 addresses from a block. For example, if my block looks like this 2607:5300:60:62ac::/64, I'm hoping I can get a list of extracted addresses like:

2607:5300:60:62ac::1
2607:5300:60:62ac::2
2607:5300:60:62ac::3
...

Any utility or script will be greatly appreciated.

Well, a list for a whole /64 would contain 18446744073709551616 entries.

Not very practical.

Here is for a shorter list:

for i in `seq 1 9999` ; do echo 2607:5300:60:62ac::$i ; done

IPv6gen (perl script):

Then:

./ipv6gen.pl 2607:5300:60:62ac::/64 128

Not sure if this might be helpful, but we use something like this to accomplish a similar task: https://gist.github.com/click0/939739

Yes, that's true. I may want a range from the whole block, like 1000 or so.

Here is for a shorter list:

> for i in `seq 1 9999` ; do echo 2607:5300:60:62ac::$i ; done

This has no problem until the 10th address generated. Thanks anyway.

Thanks. I believe that is the way to go. Not sure how likely collision could happen in multiple generations. Maybe I need to try to modify it a little bit to make it generate addresses sequentially. Thanks, the code is quite useful.

Thanks. This perl script works exactly the same as what I expected.
