Does anyone know how one might pass a list of IP to geoiplookup?

List is either in CIDR notation or in an nmap acceptable format, for example: 10.10.1-10.20-40

Unless there is some unplublished option there isn't anything in the man pages that indicates it accepts a range of addreses.

I know I took a look in the man pages as well searched for a way on the net.
What people are saying is that there are some workarounds with xargs but than you really need a list of IP addresses one per a line.

Thought I would post a question here and see if someone else would have some different ideas.

Sadly you came to the same conclusion as me... :(

O well no big deal. Could you suggest any alternative command line tools that can do the same job but will accept normal formats of IP addresses ( the ones I listed in the first post ).

Used the following as a reference for the range generation - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2...f-ip-addresses

Code:

#!/bin/bash



INET_NTOA() {

    local IFS=. num quad ip e

    num=$1

    for e in 3 2 1

    do

        (( quad = 256 ** e))

        (( ip[3-e] = num / quad ))

        (( num = num % quad ))

    done

    ip[3]=$num

    iptemp="${ip[*]}"

    geotemp=$(which geoiplookup)

    echo "$iptemp - $(eval $geotemp "${ip[*]}")"

}



INET_ATON () {

    local IFS=. ip num e

    ip=($1)

    for e in 3 2 1

    do

        (( num += ip[3-e] * 256 ** e ))

    done

    (( num += ip[3] ))

    echo "$num"

}



read -p "Start of IP address range: " ip1

read -p "End of IP address range: " ip2



ip1n=$(INET_ATON $ip1)

ip2n=$(INET_ATON $ip2)



if [[ $ip2n -lt $ip1n ]]; then

    echo "Wrong range: $ip1 - $ip2"

    exit 1;

fi



for ipn in $(seq $ip1n $ip2n)

do

    INET_NTOA $ipn

done

That being said, I slightly edited the one function to do a 'range scan' per say. Of course, modify and have fun with it. Mind you, this is just the simplest bash-script way that I have found. Of course this can be done a few other ways.
