ip address and mask in CIDR with python

Question

I would like to convert ipaddress/mask in ipaddress/CIDR: For that two variables:

i = '192.168.0.0'
m = '255.255.255.0'

The result I'm trying to obtain is:

p to be: '192.168.0.0/24'

by using ipaddress module it would be super simple to just define like:

p = ipaddress.ip_network(i/m)

unfortunately, I get TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'str' and 'str' which is not surprising.

How could I do that?

Answer 1

It works with:

p = ipaddress.ip_network(i+"/"+m)

Cheers
