SYNOPSIS
ipv6calc [OPTIONS] [<input data>]
DESCRIPTION
This program formats and calculates IPv6/IPv4/MAC addresses and can do many more tricky things, e.g. includes a pipe filter capability.
OPTIONS
If no data is presented as command-line arguments, data is read from standard input.
General
options:
[-d|--debug DEBUGVALUE]
debug value (bitwise like) can also be set by IPV6CALC_DEBUG environment value
[-v|--version [-v [-v]]]
version information (2 optional detail levels)
[-v|--version -h]
explanation of feature tokens
[-V|--verbose]
be more verbose
[-h|--help|-?]

[--db-ip2location-dir DIRECTORY]
IP2Location database directory (default: /usr/share/IP2Location)
[--db-geoip-disable]
GeoIP support disabled
[--db-geoip-dir DIRECTORY]

Special
options:
[-q|--quiet]
be more quiet (auto-enabled in pipe mode)

EXAMPLES
To run this program the standard way type:
ipv6calc --showinfo -i -m ::1
ipv6calc --showinfo -m 127.0.0.1
ipv6calc --showinfo --show_types
ipv6calc --ipv4_to_6to4addr 127.0.0.1
ipv6calc --addr_to_uncompressed ::1
Usage of filters in pipe mode:
cat <Apache-Logfile> | ipv6calc -E ipv6.db.cc=US,iid-random
