Features

• Automatic network range detection from local network interfaces when -r flag is not specified

• --list-ranges flag to show detected networks without scanning
• --max-cidr flag to limit network size (default /24 = 256 addresses)

Improvements

• Skip inactive network interfaces
• Remove duplicate IPs when multiple interfaces share the same network
• Updated documentation with new features and examples

Usage Examples
