Hi,
SQLIPPOOL requires, maintenance of an IP address table carrying individual IPs
Is there a way to handle IP prefixes (prefix/range format) so that in large networks having many different networks could main and utilze this effectively.
Sure; write an "allocate-find" SQL query that does just that. You'd probably need a stored procedure. There's no native support for it in the module.
For example it would be cumbersome if it happens to populate a table with each IP of 10.10.0.0/16.
Shrug. It's only 64k rows. I doubt it would be prohibitively expensive.
The other query is how would it affect the performance if it happens to scan through the entire table during new ip assignment of a
The default SQL schemas for the radippool table are indexed. It won't do a sequential scan, it'll fetch just one row.
client(e.g. mobile device). On the contrary, Perl has Net::IP for handling ip prefixes which may be better in performance when it comes to large deployments.
What is your opinion please ? Is there a way/module to handle this?
Thanks a lot for your thoughts/assistance.
