Subject:

NetAddr::IP->new6 ignores the mask

I am trying to construct a NetAddr::IP object given the numeric representation of the address (ex: 12345) and the prefix (ex: 1). The IPv4 version of new works fine: NetAddr::IP->new(12345, 1) => 0.0.48.57/1 But the IPv6 version ignores the mask specified and uses 128 instead: NetAddr::IP->new6(12345, 1) => 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:3039/128 At first I tried to work around this by including the mask in the first parameter to new6, but this doesn't seem to work (I can't tell if this is a bug or an undocumented feature :) NetAddr::IP->new6("12345/1") => 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:3039/97 The only workaround I found is: NetAddr::IP->new6(NetAddr::IP->new6(12345)->addr . "/1") => 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:3039/1
