IP address manipulation

[acrux14@hotmail.com]

Hi,

I'm coding some tools at work using PHP, but I come from the Perl side
of the house. :-)

Is there any built-in function in PHP for manipulating IPv4 addresses?
Perl has the Net::IP module (CPAN) which allows to calculate network
and broadcast addresses based on a provided mask, and do all kinds of
manipulation.

Is there anything similar built-into PHP, or freely available?

Thanks!
