exclude_networks() takes lists of networks to include and exclude. It then calculates the address ranges that are included but not excluded (similar to base::setdiff()), and finally returns the minimal set of networks needed to describe the remaining address ranges.

Usage

exclude_networks(include, exclude)

Arguments

include	An ip_network vector
exclude	An ip_network vector

Value

An ip_network vector

Examples

exclude_networks(ip_network("192.0.2.0/28"), ip_network("192.0.2.1/32"))

exclude_networks(ip_network("192.0.2.0/28"), ip_network("192.0.2.15/32"))
