Network

Tools for networking and the plumbing behind every website: expand and compress IPv6 addresses, calculate subnets and CIDR ranges, look up HTTP status codes, parse URLs and user-agent strings, and build DNS records. Handy for network engineers, and for developers decoding what a config file actually means.

Network

MAC to EUI-64 / Link-local

Convert any MAC address into its modified EUI-64 interface ID and the matching IPv6 link-local address — the same form Windows / Linux compute automatically.

Network
