From this information, we can formulate the following IP address ranges and import them into
HP Web Jetadmin:
15.0.1.1-15.0.1.254
15.0.2.1-15.0.2.254
15.0.3.1-15.0.3.254
15.0.4.1-15.0.4.254
15.0.5.1-15.0.5.254
15.0.30.1-15.0.30.254
15.0.31.1-15.0.31.254
15.0.32.1-15.0.32.254
15.0.33.1-15.0.33.254
15.0.34.1-15.0.34.254
15.0.35.1-15.0.35.254
15.0.36.1-15.0.36.254
15.0.37.1-15.0.37.254
15.0.38.1-15.0.38.254
15.0.39.1-15.0.39.254
We can take the formulation one step further and simplify things. Some of the IP ranges are contiguous.
These contiguously-addressed subnets are one after the other, in order, making it easy to combine them. The
final result would look like this:
15.0.1.1-15.0.5.254
15.0.30.1-15.0.39.254
This has reduced the number of IP ranges from 15 to 2. We can build this into a form that is easily imported
into HP Web Jetadmin and also reflects descriptions. Here is an example of data that can be imported via a
text file:
15.0.1.1-15.0.5.254 = subnet range for western area
15.0.30.1-15.0.39.254 = subnet range for central area
15.0.55.1-15.0.55.254 = subnet range for branch office
15.0.64.1-15.0. 74.254 = subnet range for eastern area
Consolidating ranges makes dealing with large quantities of data simpler but may not help when descriptions
are needed for the purpose of cataloging ranges.
Import and Export Features of IP Range Files
IP range data can be developed in other tools and imported through text files. In fact, HP Web Jetadmin can
export IP range data to text files. This makes it easier to deal with large numbers of IP ranges, manipulate
