List Hosts in a CIDR Block

MediumPython

Problem

Write a program that takes an IP address block in CIDR notation and returns the list of all valid host IP addresses within that subnet.

Implement def cidr_hosts(cidr):, where cidr is a valid IPv4 CIDR string and the result is a list of IPv4 address strings in ascending order. Exclude network and broadcast addresses for subnets with at least four addresses. For /31, return both addresses, and for /32, return the single address. Assume prefixes range from /24 through /32.

Constraints

  • cidr is a valid IPv4 CIDR string.
  • The prefix length is between 24 and 32.
  • Return addresses in ascending numerical order.
  • Return strings in standard dotted-decimal notation.
