IPv6 CIDR overlap

ipv6-cidr-overlap · version 1.0.0 · URLs & IP addresses · free, no key needed

Test whether two IPv6 CIDR blocks overlap (share at least one address).

Use when you need to: ipv6 cidr overlap · check ipv6 subnet overlap · ipv6 cidr intersects.

Supported

• ipv6 cidr overlap
• check ipv6 subnet overlap
• ipv6 cidr intersects

Not supported

• IPv4

Behavior

• cidr_a and cidr_b are each address/prefix with host bits zero; otherwise the tool throws.
• overlap is true iff the two blocks share at least one address, including when one fully contains the other or they are identical.

Input

• cidr_a (string, required): max length 49
• cidr_b (string, required): max length 49

Output

• overlap (boolean, required)
• network_a (string, required): max length 49
• network_b (string, required): max length 49

Limits

• max cidr length: 49

Example

Request input:

{
  "cidr_a": "2001:db8::/32",
  "cidr_b": "2001:db8:8000::/33"
}

Response:

{
  "result": {
    "overlap": true,
    "network_a": "2001:db8::/32",
    "network_b": "2001:db8:8000::/33"
  }
}
