# Information about ipcalc

This is a modern tool to assist in network address calculations for IPv4 and IPv6.
It acts both as a tool to output human readable information about a network or address,
as well as a tool suitable to be used by scripts or other programs.

It supports printing a summary about the provided network address, multiple
command line options per information to be printed, transparent IPv6 support,
and in addition it will use libGeoIP if available to provide geographic information.

The project started as a fork of the ipcalc tool in the Fedora distribution
but it has since then replaced the original tool.


# How to build

Simply type:
```
$ make
```

In order to access geo-information the application depends on the maxmind
database (libmaxminddb). Alternatively it can be built using the older
libgeoip (libgeoip) or with no geo-information whatsoever. The options
can be provided on the makefile via the variables USE_GEOIP (yes/no),
USE_MAXMIND (yes/no). For example the following command will compile
with no support for geo-information.

```
$ make USE_GEOIP=no USE_MAXMIND=no
```
