calculateSubnet
A Workflow Engine function that generates subnet data from an IP address and a suitable network mask (either a bitmask or CIDR bit count). The resulting subnet data is copied to the workflowContext (workflowContext.subnetData).
This function is available as a feature of the Add-ons v2.4 download and later.
This function is available for event, alert, and Situation workflows.
This function is eventless.

Arguments
Workflow Engine function calculateSubnet takes the following arguments:
Name | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| yes | string | The IP and mask in either bitmask or CIDR format.
|
Example
The following example demonstrates typical use of Workflow Engine function calculateSubnet.
Given an event which contains the following custom_info:
custom_info :{
...
"ipAddress" : "10.0.0.1",
"mask" : "255.255.0.0"
}The subnetDetails parameter is defined as a substitution:
$(custom_info.ipAddress)/$(custom_info.mask)
The resulting workflowContext.subnetData will contain:
{
"subnetData": {
"subnet": "10.0.0.0",
"firstHostAddress": "10.0.0.1",
"lastHostAddress": "10.0.255.254",
"numHosts": 65534,
"broadcastAddress": "10.0.255.255",
"subnetMask": "255.255.0.0",
"maskBits": 16,
"subnetName": "10.0.0.0/16"
}
}
