Side-by-side comparison of Rust crates

use-cidr
experimentalv0.1.0
CIDR parsing and prefix validation helpers for RustUse.
69
ipnet
stablev2.12.0
Provides types and useful methods for working with IPv4 and IPv6 network addresses, commonly called IP prefixes. The new `IpNet`, `Ipv4Net`, and `Ipv6Net` types build on the existing `IpAddr`, `Ipv4Addr`, and `Ipv6Addr` types already provided in Rust's standard library and align to their design to stay consistent. The module also provides useful traits that extend `Ipv4Addr` and `Ipv6Addr` with methods for `Add`, `Sub`, `BitAnd`, and `BitOr` operations. The module only uses stable feature so it is guaranteed to compile using the stable toolchain.

generic-ip
growingv0.1.1
IP address types for generic programming
