How to do wildcard search for IP addresses using INET_ATON in MySQL?

问题

I found this method to store IP addresses in MySQL database as integer using INET_ATON: https://stackoverflow.com/a/5133610/4491952

Since IPv4 addresses are 4 byte long, you could use an INT (UNSIGNED) that has exactly 4 bytes:

`ipv4` INT UNSIGNED

And INET_ATON and INET_NTOA to convert them:

INSERT INTO `table` (`ipv4`) VALUES (INET_ATON("127.0.0.1"));
SELECT INET_NTOA(`ipv4`) FROM `table`;

For IPv6 addresses you could use a BINARY instead:

`ipv6` BINARY(16)

And use PHP’s inet_pton and inet_ntop for conversion:

'INSERT INTO `table` (`ipv6`) VALUES ("'.mysqli_real_escape_string(inet_pton('2001:4860:a005::68')).'")'
'SELECT `ipv6` FROM `table`'
$ipv6 = inet_pton($row['ipv6']);

But how can I do a wildcard search, for example 192.168.%, using INET_ATON and PHP's ip2long function?

回答1:

Wildcard search operates on strings and, since it can't normally benefit from indexes, it tends to be extremely slow.

If you store IP addresses in a normalised representation aimed at machines (vs the human-readable dot-notation) you can treat them as if they were numbers, use many standard operators and make good use of indexes. An example:

SELECT *
FROM foo
WHERE dot_notation LIKE '192.168.%';

... can be rewritten as:

SELECT *
FROM foo
WHERE as_integer BETWEEN INET_ATON('192.168.0.0') AND INET_ATON('192.168.255.255');

Even these INET_ATON() instances are for mere readability, you could just enter the resulting integer. If you use PHP it's trivial because you can outsource it to PHP:

$sql = 'SELECT *
    FROM foo
    WHERE as_integer BETWEEN ? AND ?';
$params = [
   // Not sure whether you still need the sprintf('%u') trick in 64-bit PHP
   ip2long('192.168.0.0'), ip2long('192.168.255.255')
];

I cannot test it right now but I understand this should work with IPv6 as well.

One neat trick MySQL offers is bit shifting. You can use it to see if an ip is contained within an address block written in cidr notation. You can use this method treating your addresses as X.X.X.X/16 cidr block.

set @cidr_block:='10.20.30.40/16';

select inet_ntoa(inet_aton(substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',1))>>(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1))<<(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1))) as first_ip,
                 inet_aton(substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',1))>>(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1))<<(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1))  as first_ip_num,
        inet_ntoa((((inet_aton(substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',1))>>(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1)))+1)<<(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1)))-1) as last_ip,
                 (((inet_aton(substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',1))>>(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1)))+1)<<(32-substring_index(@cidr_block,'/',-1)))-1  as last_ip_num
;
+-----------+--------------+---------------+-------------+
| first_ip  | first_ip_num | last_ip       | last_ip_num |
+-----------+--------------+---------------+-------------+
| 10.20.0.0 |    169082880 | 10.20.255.255 |   169148415 |
+-----------+--------------+---------------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Shortcut to seeing if an ip is in the address block - simply sift both cidr address and ip to see if they are the same. Of course, this will be a table scan if applied to stored values.

select inet_aton('127.0.0.1')>>16 = inet_aton('127.0.10.20')>>16 as `1 = true`;
+----------+
| 1 = true |
+----------+
|        1 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

select inet_aton('127.0.0.1')>>16 = inet_aton('127.10.10.20')>>16 as `0 =  false`;
 +-----------+
 | 0 = false |
 +-----------+
 |         0 |
 +-----------+
 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
