Hello,
The function Net::CIDR::cidrvalidate does not, as one would assume,
validate a CIDR. It only validates IP addresses.
It would be very nice if cidrvalidate(), or a new function, could
validate a CIDR.
If you change cidrvalidate() to actually validate a CIDR, one could, to
keep backwards functionality, assume that a IPv4 address with no /net
appended gets a /32, and a IPv6 address gets a /128 before validation.
Versions:
Net::CIDR 0.13
perl 5.10
