CIDR Aggregator

Compute a covering supernet for multiple CIDR blocks.

Last validated: 2026-02-14

CIDR Aggregator combines adjacent CIDR blocks into the smallest valid summary routes. Route aggregation works only when blocks are contiguous and aligned on binary prefix boundaries; two neighboring /25 networks can become one /24, but arbitrary nearby ranges may not summarize cleanly. Aggregation reduces routing-table size and simplifies firewall or ACL policy, but it can also include addresses that were not intended if the summary is too broad. This tool is useful for route planning, cloud allowlists, and network documentation because it shows which prefixes can be represented compactly. Always confirm summarized routes against ownership, security policy, and live routing behavior before deployment.

Input Pattern

Enter values in the left panel, keep units explicit, run the calculation, then copy or share the result. Invalid fields are highlighted immediately.

CIDR Inputs

One CIDR per line (IPv4).

Result

Covering supernet: 10.0.0.0/22

Input CIDRs: 3

Min network: 10.0.0.0

Max broadcast: 10.0.2.255

How to use this tool

  1. Enter CIDRs for the cidr aggregator, keeping units, dates, or text format consistent with the form labels.
  2. Confirm address formats, masks, ports, or hostnames match the network environment you are checking.
  3. Click "Run the tool" and review CIDR Inputs, Result for the primary output.
  4. Compare the output with device, provider, or DNS authority settings before applying a live network change.
