Filtering range

The filtering range is calculated based on IP address and subnet mask provided by user as

follows:

The subnet value defines the number of masked bits, which will mask the IP address that

is converted into 32-bit binary; rest of masked out bits are ignored to produce the range

as shown below.

Ex) IP address : 128.128.128.128

If the Subnet is set to 8, converted IP is 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000

and the subnet directs to find matches from the first bit to the 8th bit, produces the

filtering range of 1000 0000.???? ????.???? ????.???? ????, which will be converted

back to IP address range of 128.0.0.0 ~ 128.255.255.255.

If the Subnet is set to 10, converted IP is 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000

0000 and the subnet directs to find matches from the first bit to the 10th bit, produces

the filtering range of 1000 0000.0000.10?? ????.???? ????.???? ????, which will be

converted back to IP address range of 128.0.0.0 ~ 128.191.255.255.

If the Subnet is set to 20, converted IP is 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000

and the subnet directs to find matches from the first bit to the 20th bit, produces the

filtering range of 1000 00001000 0000.1000 ????.???? ????, which will be converted

back to IP address range of 128.128.128.0 ~ 128.128.143.255.

If the Subnet is set to 30, converted IP is 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000

and the subnet directs to find matches from the first bit to the 30th bit, produces the

filtering range of 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 00??, which will be converted

back to IP address range of 128.128.128.128 ~ 128.128.128.131.

If the Subnet is set to 32, converted IP is 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000

and the subnet directs to find matches from the first bit to the 32th bit, produces the

filtering range of 1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000.1000 0000, which will be converted

back to IP address of 128.128.128.128.
