This script takes an IP address in CIDR format (192.168.33.55/24) and will return the Subnet ID, First Host IP Address, Last Host IP Address, and the Broadcast Address. It does require the ConvertTo-CmnIpAddress, and New-CmnLogEntry functions. All can be found on the Github site.
Converting 32 bit binary number to an IP address
This script will convert a 32-bit number into an IP address. This script is usually used by other TCP/IP scripts, not necessarily directly. This script also requires New-CmnLogEntry
Converting to CIDR address
This script takes a standard IP address/Subnet Mask input in dotted decimal notation and returns the equivalent CIDR address. So, 192.168.25.33 255.255.255.0 returns 192.168.25.33/24. It validates input and verifies the subnet mask is valid. This script requires New-CmnLogEntry. These scripts can be found in my GitHub repository.

Speeding up testing of deployments

In order to move things along, it helps to understand what is going on in the background, so we will focusing on that. I will assume you already have an understanding of creating packages and will not go into much detail there.
