More ways to use it

Test multiple subnets at once

You can pass an array instead of a single subnet.

const inAnySubnet = isInSubnet('10.5.0.1', [ '10.4.5.0/16', '192.168.1.0/24' ]);

This module recognizes several special classes of addresses.

Private addresses

isPrivate(address);

True if the address is in a private/internal address range, such as 192.168.1.1 or similar, or an IPv6 Unique Local Address.

Localhost addresses

isLocalhost(address);

True if the address represents the localhost, such as 127.0.0.1 or ::1.
