I'm looking for quick/simple method for matching a given IP4 dotted quad IP to a CIDR notation mask.

I have a bunch of IPs I need to see if they match a range of IPs.

example:

$ips = array('10.2.1.100', '10.2.1.101', '10.5.1.100', '1.2.3.4');

foreach ($ips as $IP) {
    if (cidr_match($IP, '10.2.0.0/16') == true) {
        print "you're in the 10.2 subnet\n"; 
    }
}

What would cidr_match() look like?

It doesn't really have to be simple, but fast would be good. Anything that uses only built-in/common functions is a bonus (as I'm likely to get one person to show me something in pear that does this, but I can't depend on pear or that package being installed where my code is deployed).

If only using IPv4:

  • use ip2long() to convert the IPs and the subnet range into long integers
  • convert the /xx into a subnet mask
  • do a bitwise 'and' (i.e. ip & mask)' and check that that 'result = subnet'

something like this should work:

function cidr_match($ip, $range)
{
    list ($subnet, $bits) = explode('/', $range);
    if ($bits === null) {
        $bits = 32;
    }
    $ip = ip2long($ip);
    $subnet = ip2long($subnet);
    $mask = -1 << (32 - $bits);
    $subnet &= $mask; # nb: in case the supplied subnet wasn't correctly aligned
    return ($ip & $mask) == $subnet;
}

  • perhaps if you posted your C# version we might be able to figure out why? – Alnitak May 06 '09 at 22:59

    @Guillaume - are you sure about that? the important part is that the correct least significant bits are zero. The extra high bits you'd get on a 64-bit machine would be ignored. – Alnitak Apr 08 '11 at 07:15
  • @Alnitak - sorry, you're absolutely correct. I rolled out my own function inspired by your submission and it was necessary in mine for some reason. My apologies for the noise. – The Mighty Rubber Duck Apr 11 '11 at 00:43

    This will not work on 32-bit systems: match(1.2.3.4, 0.0.0.0/0) returns false, should return true – Jaka Jančar Jun 25 '11 at 12:29
  • I don't see why you use split, it's only a char, so you don't need the regex engine, also split is deprecated from php 5.3 – Decebal Dec 17 '12 at 08:14

    @JakaJančar are you sure your test is valid? maybe you misunderstood how the function works – Decebal Dec 17 '12 at 08:36
  • NOTE that if `$range` does not contain a `/`, this function will always return true (since `$bits` will be `NULL`). In other words, this function needs something like `if($bits === null) return false;` Also, ideally, this function would check that `$subnet` is at least a valid IP address. – rinogo Nov 05 '18 at 19:56

    @rinogo a better fix would probably be to set `$bits = 32` if there was no `/`. – Alnitak Nov 06 '18 at 02:24
  • With the edits over the years, this seems to work fine for me. Good solution for a quick fix. – Steen Schütt Sep 25 '20 at 08:33

In a similar situation, I ended up using symfony/http-foundation.

When using this package, your code would look like:

$ips = array('10.2.1.100', '10.2.1.101', '10.5.1.100', '1.2.3.4');

foreach($ips as $IP) {
    if (\Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\IpUtils::checkIp($IP, '10.2.0.0/16')) {
        print "you're in the 10.2 subnet\n";
    }
}

It also handles IPv6.

  • Thanks! Somehow Symfony solution works correctly in my case, while accepted one - doesn't. – Xardas Jan 21 '15 at 11:46

    Thats because PHP, composer, and Symphony were very different back when the question was asked in 2009 – Uberfuzzy Jan 14 '16 at 17:30

    Thanks for letting us know about this -rather obscured but useful- utility method. There's one flaw in your code, though, the second argument for the IpUtils::checkIp method is a hard-coded string, the iterated ips are not being used.- – rafark Dec 14 '19 at 23:31

    this is the way if you're using a symphony based framework like laravel – darryn.ten Mar 27 '21 at 04:11

I found many of these methods breaking after PHP 5.2. However the following solution works on versions 5.2 and above:

function cidr_match($ip, $cidr)
{
    list($subnet, $mask) = explode('/', $cidr);

    if ((ip2long($ip) & ~((1 << (32 - $mask)) - 1) ) == ip2long($subnet))
    { 
        return true;
    }

    return false;
}

Example results

cidr_match("1.2.3.4", "0.0.0.0/0"):         true
cidr_match("127.0.0.1", "127.0.0.1/32"):    true
cidr_match("127.0.0.1", "127.0.0.2/32"):    false

  • `cidr_match("1.2.3.4", "0.0.0.0/0")` returns false on my machine (PHP 5.5.13, Windows x64). – Simon East May 20 '16 at 06:03

    @Samuel Parkinson, just so you know there's a library built on your answer: https://github.com/tholu/php-cidr-match. The author has given the credit. – Bhargav Nanekalva Dec 09 '17 at 07:20
  • NOTE that if `$cidr` does not contain a `/`, this function will always return true (since `$mask` will be `NULL`). In other words, this function needs something like `if($mask === null) return false;` Also, `$subnet` should be verified to at least be a valid IP address. Due to both of these issues, something silly like `cidr_match("8.8.8.8", "blah");` will return `true`. – rinogo Nov 05 '18 at 19:52

Some function changed:

  • split with explode

function cidr_match($ip, $range)
{
    list ($subnet, $bits) = explode('/', $range);
    $ip = ip2long($ip);
    $subnet = ip2long($subnet);
    $mask = -1 << (32 - $bits);
    $subnet &= $mask; 
    return ($ip & $mask) == $subnet;
}

  • Here's an added implementation to check against CloudFlare's IP for example: [code] $ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; $c1 = cidr_match($ip, '204.93.240.0/24'); $c2 = cidr_match($ip, '204.93.177.0/24'); $c3 = etc.. $cTotal = round($c1+$c2+$c3+...); if($cTotal < 1) die(); [/code] – Ruslan Abuzant Jul 25 '13 at 21:57

Here is one fast 64bits function to do it, please comment the return line you don't need. Accepting any valid Ipv4 with or without valid CIDR Routing Prefix for example 63.161.156.0/24 or 63.161.156.0

<?php
function cidr2range($ipv4){
if ($ip=strpos($ipv4,'/'))
{$n_ip=(1<<(32-substr($ipv4,1+$ip)))-1;   $ip_dec=ip2long(substr($ipv4,0,$ip)); }
else
{$n_ip=0;                                   $ip_dec=ip2long($ipv4);             }
$ip_min=$ip_dec&~$n_ip;
$ip_max=$ip_min+$n_ip;
#Array(2) of Decimal Values Range
return [$ip_min,$ip_max];
#Array(2) of Ipv4 Human Readable Range
return [long2ip($ip_min),long2ip($ip_max)];
#Array(2) of Ipv4 and Subnet Range
return [long2ip($ip_min),long2ip(~$n_ip)];
#Array(2) of Ipv4 and Wildcard Bits
return [long2ip($ip_min),long2ip($n_ip)];
#Integer Number of Ipv4 in Range
return ++$n_ip;
}

To fast check if a given ipv4 is matching a given CIDR you can do it inline like in this example

<?php
$given_cidr='55.55.55.0/24';
$given_ipv4='55.55.55.55';
if(($range=cidr2range($given_cidr)) &&
($check=ip2long($given_ipv4))!==false &&
$check>=$range[0] && $check<=$range[1])
{
echo 'Yes, '.$given_ipv4.' is included in '.$given_cidr;
}
else
{
echo 'No, '.$given_ipv4.' is not included in '.$given_cidr;
}

To get the full range as an array for a given IP (with or without CIDR Routing Prefix) you can use the following code but be carefull because for example 25.25.25.25/16 return an array with 65536 elements and you can easily run out of memory using a smaller Routing Prefix

<?php
$result=cidr2range($ipv4);
for($ip_dec=$result[0];$ip_dec<=$result[1];$ip_dec++)
$full_range[$ip_dec]=long2ip($ip_dec);
print_r($full_range);

To fast check if a given ipv4 is matching a given array of IP (with or without CIDR Routing Prefix)

<?php
#This code is checking if a given ip belongs to googlebot
$given_ipv4='74.125.61.208';
$given_cidr_array=['108.59.93.43/32','108.59.93.40/31','108.59.93.44/30','108.59.93.32/29','108.59.93.48/28','108.59.93.0/27','108.59.93.64/26','108.59.93.192/26','108.59.92.192/27','108.59.92.128/26','108.59.92.96/27','108.59.92.0/27','108.59.94.208/29','108.59.94.192/28','108.59.94.240/28','108.59.94.128/26','108.59.94.16/29','108.59.94.0/28','108.59.94.32/27','108.59.94.64/26','108.59.95.0/24','108.59.88.0/22','108.59.81.0/27','108.59.80.0/24','108.59.82.0/23','108.59.84.0/22','108.170.217.128/28','108.170.217.160/27','108.170.217.192/26','108.170.217.0/25','108.170.216.0/24','108.170.218.0/23','108.170.220.0/22','108.170.208.0/21','108.170.192.0/20','108.170.224.0/19','108.177.0.0/17','104.132.0.0/14','104.154.0.0/15','104.196.0.0/14','107.167.160.0/19','107.178.192.0/18','125.17.82.112/30','125.16.7.72/30','74.125.0.0/16','72.14.192.0/18','77.109.131.208/28','77.67.50.32/27','66.102.0.0/20','66.227.77.144/29','66.249.64.0/19','67.148.177.136/29','64.124.98.104/29','64.71.148.240/29','64.68.64.64/26','64.68.80.0/20','64.41.221.192/28','64.41.146.208/28','64.9.224.0/19','64.233.160.0/19','65.171.1.144/28','65.170.13.0/28','65.167.144.64/28','65.220.13.0/24','65.216.183.0/24','70.32.132.0/23','70.32.128.0/22','70.32.136.0/21','70.32.144.0/20','85.182.250.128/26','85.182.250.0/25','80.239.168.192/26','80.149.20.0/25','61.246.224.136/30','61.246.190.124/30','63.237.119.112/29','63.226.245.56/29','63.158.137.224/29','63.166.17.128/25','63.161.156.0/24','63.88.22.0/23','41.206.188.128/26','12.234.149.240/29','12.216.80.0/24','8.34.217.24/29','8.34.217.0/28','8.34.217.32/27','8.34.217.64/26','8.34.217.128/25','8.34.216.0/24','8.34.218.0/23','8.34.220.0/22','8.34.208.128/29','8.34.208.144/28','8.34.208.160/27','8.34.208.192/26','8.34.208.0/25','8.34.209.0/24','8.34.210.0/23','8.34.212.0/22','8.35.195.128/28','8.35.195.160/27','8.35.195.192/26','8.35.195.0/25','8.35.194.0/24','8.35.192.0/23','8.35.196.0/22','8.35.200.0/21','8.8.8.0/24','8.8.4.0/24','8.6.48.0/21','4.3.2.0/24','23.236.48.0/20','23.251.128.0/19','216.239.32.0/19','216.252.220.0/22','216.136.145.128/27','216.33.229.160/29','216.33.229.144/29','216.34.7.176/28','216.58.192.0/19','216.109.75.80/28','216.74.130.48/28','216.74.153.0/27','217.118.234.96/28','208.46.199.160/29','208.44.48.240/29','208.21.209.0/28','208.184.125.240/28','209.185.108.128/25','209.85.128.0/17','213.200.103.128/26','213.200.99.192/26','213.155.151.128/26','199.192.112.224/29','199.192.112.192/27','199.192.112.128/26','199.192.112.0/25','199.192.113.176/28','199.192.113.128/27','199.192.113.192/26','199.192.113.0/25','199.192.115.80/28','199.192.115.96/27','199.192.115.0/28','199.192.115.128/25','199.192.114.192/26','199.192.114.0/25','199.223.232.0/21','198.108.100.192/28','195.16.45.144/29','192.104.160.0/23','192.158.28.0/22','192.178.0.0/15','206.160.135.240/28','207.223.160.0/20','203.222.167.144/28','173.255.125.72/29','173.255.125.80/28','173.255.125.96/27','173.255.125.0/27','173.255.125.128/25','173.255.124.240/29','173.255.124.232/29','173.255.124.192/27','173.255.124.128/29','173.255.124.144/28','173.255.124.160/27','173.255.124.48/29','173.255.124.32/28','173.255.124.0/27','173.255.124.64/26','173.255.126.0/23','173.255.122.128/26','173.255.122.64/26','173.255.123.0/24','173.255.121.128/26','173.255.121.0/25','173.255.120.0/24','173.255.117.32/27','173.255.117.64/26','173.255.117.128/25','173.255.116.192/27','173.255.116.128/26','173.255.116.0/25','173.255.118.0/23','173.255.112.0/22','173.194.0.0/16','172.102.8.0/21','172.253.0.0/16','172.217.0.0/16','162.216.148.0/22','162.222.176.0/21','180.87.33.64/26','128.177.109.0/26','128.177.119.128/25','128.177.163.0/25','130.211.0.0/16','142.250.0.0/15','146.148.0.0/17'];

To run fast the function don't check input but formally it should be a string matching the following regex

#^(?:((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))\.((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))\.((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))\.((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))(?:/((?:(?:0)|(?:3[0-2])|(?:[1-2]?[0-9]))))?)$#

If you want to verify the input before using the function

<?php
if (is_string($ipv4) && preg_match('#^(?:((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))\.((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))\.((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))\.((?:0)|(?:2(?:(?:[0-4][0-9])|(?:5[0-5])))|(?:1?[0-9]{1,2}))(?:/((?:(?:0)|(?:3[0-2])|(?:[1-2]?[0-9]))))?)$#',$ipv4))
{
#This is a valid ipv4 with or without CIDR Routing Prefix
$result=cidr2range($ipv4);
print_r($result);
}

Then the formal answer to your question is the following

<?php
#Requiring cidr2range shown above function
function cidr_match($mixed_ip,$mixed_cidr){
if (!is_array($mixed_ip)){
$string_mode=true;
$mixed_ip=[$mixed_ip=>0];
}
else $mixed_ip=array_fill_keys($mixed_ip,0);
if (!is_array($mixed_cidr)) $mixed_cidr=[$mixed_cidr];
foreach($mixed_ip   as $ip => &$result)
foreach($mixed_cidr as $cidr)
{
if(($range=cidr2range($cidr)) &&
($check=ip2long($ip))!==false &&
$check>=$range[0] && $check<=$range[1]){
$result=$cidr;
break;
}
}
$mixed_ip=array_filter($mixed_ip);
return $string_mode?($mixed_ip?true:false):$mixed_ip;
}

print '<pre>';

#Your example
$ips = array('10.2.1.100', '10.2.1.101', '10.5.1.100', '1.2.3.4');

foreach ($ips as $IP) {
    if (cidr_match($IP, '10.2.0.0/16') == true) {
        print "you're in the 10.2 subnet\n"; 
    }
}


#Also working with IP array and/or CIDR array
#If IP array is given then return an array containing IP (keys) matching CIDR (values)
$result=cidr_match($ips,['20.2.0.0/16','10.2.0.0/15']);
foreach($result as $ip => $cidr){
print "$ip is in the $cidr subnet\n"; 
}

You can compile your own function using these examples, hope these few lines have helped you…

My technique uses bit to bit matching using subnet and mask.

function cidr_match($ip, $range){
    list ($subnet, $bits) = explode('/', $range);
    $ip = substr(IP2bin($ip),0,$bits) ;
    $subnet = substr(IP2Bin($subnet),0,$bits) ;
    return ($ip == $subnet) ;
}

function IP2Bin($ip){
    $ipbin = '';
    $ips = explode(".",$ip) ;
    foreach ($ips as $iptmp){
        $ipbin .= sprintf("%08b",$iptmp) ;
    }
    return $ipbin ;
}

I also needed to test IP's against CIDR masks. I've found a website with excellent explanation and sourcecode which works perfectly well.

The website http://pgregg.com/blog/2009/04/php-algorithms-determining-if-an-ip-is-within-a-specific-range/

Because the website can one day cease to exist, here is the code

<?php

/*
 * ip_in_range.php - Function to determine if an IP is located in a
 *                   specific range as specified via several alternative
 *                   formats.
 *
 * Network ranges can be specified as:
 * 1. Wildcard format:     1.2.3.*
 * 2. CIDR format:         1.2.3/24  OR  1.2.3.4/255.255.255.0
 * 3. Start-End IP format: 1.2.3.0-1.2.3.255

I recently needed to match an IP address to a CIDR mask and came across this article. Below is a slightly different approach based on the ideas above and includes a check on the CIDR input. The function returns false if an incorrect CIDR format is submitted.

I posted this solution for anyone who needs a turn-key function that has been tested.

/**
 * Validates subnet specified by CIDR notation.of the form IP address followed by 
 * a '/' character and a decimal number specifying the length, in bits, of the subnet
 * mask or routing prefix (number from 0 to 32).
 *
 * @param $ip - IP address to check
 * @param $cidr - IP address range in CIDR notation for check
 * @return bool - true match found otherwise false
 */
function cidr_match($ip, $cidr) {
    $outcome = false;
    $pattern = '/^(([01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.){3}([01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\/(\d{1}|[0-2]{1}\d{1}|3[0-2])$/';
    if (preg_match($pattern, $cidr)){
        list($subnet, $mask) = explode('/', $cidr);
        if (ip2long($ip) >> (32 - $mask) == ip2long($subnet) >> (32 - $mask)) {
            $outcome = true;
        }
    }
    return $outcome;
}

Just a note, Alnitak's answer works 32/64 bit.

Here is a cooked version of it, for quick spam protection based on country IP lists that you can get everywhere. google for country ip list or country ip block (Have to give one here, really difficult to find it in that sites page navigation:Country ip block generator)

Copy-paste your cidr ip list to string $cidrs. And put this code just before page html, possibly in the header.php file.

Can also be used to filter adsense use in page templates based on country.

This is only a in-the-middle-of-the-night-urgency solution. Sometimes one needs to come up with something like this for a client quickly yesterday, so here it is.

//++++++++++++++++++++++
//COUNTRY SPAM PROTECTOR
//speed: ~5ms @ 2000 cidrs

$cidrs=

#mycountry

';
//$cidrs.="\n".'123.12.12.12/32';//test, your ip
$cidrs_ar=preg_split('/\s+/',$cidrs,-1,PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
$ip=@$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$iplong=ip2long($ip);
//var_export($cidrs_ar);var_export($ip);var_export($iplong);
if($iplong)
  foreach($cidrs_ar as $cidr)
    {
    $ar=explode ('/', $cidr);
    $netiplong=ip2long($ar[0]);
    if($netiplong===false) continue;
    $mask=intval(@$ar[1]);
    if(!$mask) continue;
    $bitmask=-1 <<(32-$mask);
    if(($iplong & $bitmask) == ($netiplong & $bitmask))
        {
        header('Location: http://www.someotherwebsite.com/',true,303);
        exit;
        }
    }

You also can use Net_IPv4 PEAR library.

function cidr_match($ip, $net){
  include_once("Net/IPv4.php");
  $objIP = new Net_IPv4();
  return $objIP->ipInNetwork($ip, $net);
}

Perhaps it is useful to someone.

Convert bit mask into IP mask:

// convert 12 => 255.240.0.0
// ip2long('255.255.255.255') == -1
$ip = long2ip((-1 << (32 - $bit)) & -1);

Convert IP mask into bit mask:

// convert 255.240.0.0 => 12

// is valid IP
if (filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV4) === false) {
    throw new \InvalidArgumentException(sprintf('Invalid IP "%s".', $ip));
}

// convert decimal to binary
$mask = '';
foreach (explode('.', $ip) as $octet) {
    $mask .= str_pad(decbin($octet), 8, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
}

// check mask
if (strpos('01', $mask) !== false) {
    // valid   11111111111111111111111100000000 -> 255.255.255.0
    // invalid 11111111111111111111111100000001 -> 255.255.255.1
    throw new \InvalidArgumentException(sprintf('IP mask "%s" is not valid.', $ip));
}

$bit = substr_count($mask, '1'); // bit mask

I ended up using @A.R.NasirQureshi's solution with bit to bit matching subnet and mask, which I expanded to deal with IPv6 as well since no other solution mentioned inet_pton that effectively takes care of some odd cases like "2006:BCAA:64FF::104.121.140.212" , instead of splitting by "." or ":" which may be complicated !

function cidr_match($ip, $range){
  list($subnet, $bits) = explode('/', $range);

  //add 128-32=96 for IPv4 range bits
  if(filter_var($subnet, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV4)){ $bits += 96; }

  // compare bits of the 2 strings of 128 0 & 1 like 11000010101100
  $subnet = substr( IP2Bin($subnet), 0, $bits);
  $ip = substr( IP2Bin($ip), 0, $bits);

  return $ip == $subnet;
}
function IP2Bin($ip){
  $IPbin = ''; $bin = inet_pton($ip);
  if($bin===false){return str_repeat('0',128);} //in case of invalid IP

  //split into 4-char hexadecimal parts (just to avoid issues with hexdec for larger hex, but you can choose more)
  $arr = str_split( current( unpack('H*', $bin) ) , 4 );

  //each char is 4 bits so 4 chars == 16 bits
  foreach($arr as $p){ $IPbin .= sprintf("%016b", hexdec($p) ); }

  //always get 128 chars string of 1s & 0s
  return str_pad( $IPbin, 128, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT );
}

Because the comparison always takes place with "128 bits" (aka 128 1s & 0s), this works whether both the IP and Range are the same type (IPv4 or IPv6), and even when their type is different (IPv4 vs IPv6 or vice-versa).

I recently needed to match IP addresses to a network list and found this question. Below is a variant integrating all the ideas posted earlier plus IPv6 support and validation of address, subnet and mask. The function returns false if an incorrect CIDR format is submitted or when attempt to match IPv4 address to IPv6 network (or vice versa) is made.

/*

  cidr_match('1.2.3.4', '1.2.3.5/24') == true

  cidr_match('::1.2.3.4', '::1.2.3.0/126') == false
*/
function cidr_match($ip, $cidr)
{
    if (!filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP)) return false;
    $p = unpack('N*', inet_pton($ip)); $ps = count($p);

    list ($subnet, $bits) = [$cidr, '128'];
    if (strstr($cidr, '/')) list ($subnet, $bits) = explode('/', $cidr, 2);
    if (!filter_var($subnet, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP)) return false;
    if (!preg_match('/^[1-9][0-9]*$/', $bits)) return false;
    $s = unpack('N*', inet_pton($subnet));
    if (count($s) != $ps) return false;
    $bits = intval($bits);

    $m = [];
    for ($i = 1; $i <= $ps; $i++)
        $m[$i] = ($i*32 - $bits) < 0 ? -1 : -1 << ($i*32 - $bits);

    for ($i = 1; $i <= $ps; $i++)
        if (($p[$i] & $m[$i]) != ($s[$i] & $m[$i]))
            return false;

    return true;
}

/*

I want to have you look at my few lines. The examples that people suggested before me don't seem to work. One reason being, as far as I understand it, is that CIDR mask bits are binary numbers, so the bit shift must be done on a binary number. I have tried converting the long IP's into binaries, but ran into a max binary number limit. OK, here my few lines ... I await your comments.

function cidr_match($ipStr, $cidrStr) {

$ipStr = explode('.', $ipStr);
foreach ($ipStr as $key => $val) {
    $ipStr[$key] = str_pad(decbin($val), 8, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
    }
$ip = '';
foreach ($ipStr as $binval) {
    $ip = $ip . $binval;
    }

$cidrArr = explode('/',$cidrStr);

$maskIP = explode('.', $cidrArr[0]);
foreach ($maskIP as $key => $val) {
    $maskIP[$key] = str_pad(decbin($val), 8, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
    }
$maskIP = '';
foreach ($ipStr as $binval) {
    $maskIP = $maskIP . $binval;
    }
$maskBits = 32 - $cidrArr[1];
return (($ip>>$maskBits) == ($maskIP>>$maskBits));  
}
