How to Calculate VPC Subnet CIDR Details in Python
Compute network address, broadcast address, address count, prefix length, and netmask for any IPv4 CIDR using the Python standard library's ipaddress module.
import ipaddress
def subnet_details(cidr: str) -> dict:
network = ipaddress.ip_network(cidr, strict=False)
return {
"network_address": str(network.network_address),
"broadcast_address": str(network.broadcast_address),
"num_addresses": network.num_addresses,
