About This Tool

What It Does

  • Classifies any IPv4 or IPv6 address into its special-purpose range
  • Identifies private (RFC 1918), CGNAT (RFC 6598), link-local, multicast, and more
  • Shows routability — whether the address can appear on the public internet
  • References RFCs — links to the authoritative standards for each range

Common Use Cases

  • Checking if an IP in logs is private, CGNAT, or public
  • Verifying whether an address should be filtered at a firewall
  • Identifying 6to4, Teredo, or NAT64 tunnel addresses
  • Quick reference for documentation and benchmarking ranges
