Takes a list of prefixes in conventional format on stdin, and performs two
|
|
optimisations to attempt to reduce the length of the prefix list.
|
|
|
|
The first optimisation is to remove any supplied prefixes which are
|
|
supurfluous because they are already included in another supplied prefix.
|
|
For example, 203.97.2.0/24 would be removed if 203.97.0.0/17 was also
|
|
supplied.
|
|
|
|
The second optimisation identifies adjacent prefixes that can be combined
|
|
under a single, shorter-length prefix. For example, 203.97.2.0/24 and
|
|
203.97.3.0/24 can be combined into the single prefix 203.97.2.0/23.
