Validate an IP Address (with Mask)

I have ip addresses and a mask such as 10.1.1.1/32. I would like to check if 10.1.1.1 is inside that range. Is there a library or开发者_开发技巧 utility that would do this or do I need to write something myself?

First you'll want to convert your IP addresses into flat ints, which will be easier to work with:

String       s = "10.1.1.99";
Inet4Address a = (Inet4Address) InetAddress.getByName(s);
byte[]       b = a.getAddress();
int          i = ((b[0] & 0xFF) << 24) |
                 ((b[1] & 0xFF) << 16) |
                 ((b[2] & 0xFF) <<  8) |
                 ((b[3] & 0xFF) <<  0);

Once you have your IP addresses as plain ints you can do some bit arithmetic to perform the check:

int subnet = 0x0A010100;   // 10.1.1.0/24
int bits   = 24;
int ip     = 0x0A010163;   // 10.1.1.99

// Create bitmask to clear out irrelevant bits. For 10.1.1.0/24 this is
// 0xFFFFFF00 -- the first 24 bits are 1's, the last 8 are 0's.
//
//     -1        == 0xFFFFFFFF
//     32 - bits == 8
//     -1 << 8   == 0xFFFFFF00
mask = -1 << (32 - bits)

if ((subnet & mask) == (ip & mask)) {
    // IP address is in the subnet.
}

public static boolean netMatch(String addr, String addr1){ //addr is subnet address and addr1 is ip address. Function will return true, if addr1 is within addr(subnet)

        String[] parts = addr.split("/");
        String ip = parts[0];
        int prefix;

        if (parts.length < 2) {
            prefix = 0;
        } else {
            prefix = Integer.parseInt(parts[1]);
        }

        Inet4Address a =null;
        Inet4Address a1 =null;
        try {
            a = (Inet4Address) InetAddress.getByName(ip);
            a1 = (Inet4Address) InetAddress.getByName(addr1);
        } catch (UnknownHostException e){}

        byte[] b = a.getAddress();
        int ipInt = ((b[0] & 0xFF) << 24) |
                         ((b[1] & 0xFF) << 16) |
                         ((b[2] & 0xFF) << 8)  |
                         ((b[3] & 0xFF) << 0);

        byte[] b1 = a1.getAddress();
        int ipInt1 = ((b1[0] & 0xFF) << 24) |
                         ((b1[1] & 0xFF) << 16) |
                         ((b1[2] & 0xFF) << 8)  |
                         ((b1[3] & 0xFF) << 0);

        int mask = ~((1 << (32 - prefix)) - 1);

        if ((ipInt & mask) == (ipInt1 & mask)) {
            return true;
        }
        else {
            return false;
        }
}

Here is a version that takes subnet descriptions in several common ways, including IPv6.

Based on the other code posted here. On IPv4 addresses it might work slower than the approach of performing binary operations on bare int's.

This is just a few lines of code with the open-source IPAddress Java library. Disclaimer: I am the project manager of the IPAddress library.

String subnetStr = "10.1.1.1/24";
String addrStr = "10.1.1.1";
IPAddress subnetAddress = new IPAddressString(subnetStr).getAddress();
IPAddress subnet = subnetAddress.toPrefixBlock();
IPAddress testAddress = new IPAddressString(addrStr).getAddress();
boolean result = subnet.contains(testAddress);
System.out.println(subnetAddress + " is in subnet " + subnet + " and " +
            (result ? "contains" : "does not contain") + " address " + testAddress);

Output:

10.1.1.1/24 is in subnet 10.1.1.0/24 and contains address 10.1.1.1

There is commons-ip-math library that I believe does a very good job. Please note that as of May 2019, there hasn't been any updates to the library for 2 years (Could be that its already very mature library). Its available on maven-central

It supports working with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Their brief documentation has examples on how you can check if an address is in a specific range for IPv4 and IPv6

Example for IPv4 range checking:

        String input1 = "10.1.1.1";
        Ipv4 ipv41 = Ipv4.parse(input1);

        // Using CIDR notation to specify the networkID and netmask
        Ipv4Range range = Ipv4Range.parse("10.1.1.1/32");
        boolean result = range.contains(ipv41);
        System.out.println(result); //true

        String input2 = "10.1.1.1";
        Ipv4 ipv42 = Ipv4.parse(input2);

        // Specifying the range with a start and end.
        Ipv4 start = Ipv4.of("10.1.1.1");
        Ipv4 end = Ipv4.of("10.1.1.1");
        range = Ipv4Range.from(start).to(end);

        result = range.contains(ipv42); //true
        System.out.println(result);

I did have to add a mask to the int conversion in his code:

byte[]       b = a.getAddress();
int          i = (b[0] << 24) | (b[1] << 16) | (b[2] << 8) | (b[3] << 0);
System.out.println(Integer.toHexString(i));
System.out.println(Integer.toHexString(addrToInt(a)));

Produced:
