Subnet Highlighter

By: Link Add-on
Automatically highlights CIDR subnet masks on any page and shows IP count on hover

Features & Capabilities

Subnet Highlighter automatically scans every page and highlights all CIDR subnet masks — both IPv4 (/0–/32) and IPv6 (/0–/128). Hover over any highlighted mask to instantly see detailed network information.

IPv4 shows:

  • Network & broadcast address, first/last host
  • Total IPs, usable hosts, subnet mask, wildcard
  • Binary mask representation
  • Class (A/B/C), Private/Public (RFC1918)
  • Parent network, host offset, reverse DNS zone (PTR)
  • Subnets if split into /28, /29, /30

IPv6 shows:

  • Network address, first/last host
  • Total addresses (as power of 2)
  • Type: Global Unicast, Link-local, ULA, Multicast, Loopback
  • Parent network, reverse DNS zone (ip6.arpa)
  • Subnets if split

IPv4 masks are highlighted in yellow, IPv6 in blue. Works on any page including wikis, monitoring dashboards, NOC tools, and RIPE/BGP looking glasses.

Is Subnet Highlighter Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Subnet Highlighter requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Subnet Highlighter is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
