- ## Constructor Details

  - ### SubnetUtils

    public SubnetUtils(String cidrNotation)
    Constructs an instance from a CIDR-notation string, e.g. "192.168.0.1/16"
    Parameters:
      `cidrNotation` - A CIDR-notation string, e.g. "192.168.0.1/16"
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if the parameter is invalid, i.e. does not match n.n.n.n/m where n=1-3 decimal digits, m = 1-2 decimal digits in range 0-32

  - ### SubnetUtils

    public SubnetUtils(String address, String mask)
    Constructs an instance from a dotted decimal address and a dotted decimal mask.
    Parameters:
      `address` - An IP address, e.g. "192.168.0.1"
      `mask` - A dotted decimal netmask e.g. "255.255.0.0"
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if the address or mask is invalid, i.e. does not match n.n.n.n where n=1-3 decimal digits and the mask is not all zeros

- ## Method Details

  - ### getInfo

    public final SubnetUtils.SubnetInfo getInfo()
    Gets a `SubnetUtils.SubnetInfo` instance that contains subnet-specific statistics
    Returns:
      new instance

  - ### getNext

    public SubnetUtils getNext()
    Gets the next subnet for this instance.
    Returns:
      the next subnet for this instance.

  - ### getPrevious

    public SubnetUtils getPrevious()
    Gets the previous subnet for this instance.
    Returns:
      the next previous for this instance.

  - ### isInclusiveHostCount

    public boolean isInclusiveHostCount()
    Tests if the return value of `SubnetUtils.SubnetInfo.getAddressCount()` includes the network and broadcast addresses.
    Returns:
      true if the host count includes the network and broadcast addresses
    Since:
      2.2

  - ### setInclusiveHostCount

    public void setInclusiveHostCount(boolean inclusiveHostCount)
    Sets to `true` if you want the return value of `SubnetUtils.SubnetInfo.getAddressCount()` to include the network and broadcast addresses. This also applies to `SubnetUtils.SubnetInfo.isInRange(int)`
    Parameters:
      `inclusiveHostCount` - true if network and broadcast addresses are to be included
    Since:
      2.2

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    Converts this instance to a debug String.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      this instance to a debug String.
    Since:
      3.11.0
