Splunk deployment based on CIDR
#!/usr/bin/env python
''' Splunk deployment based on CIDR
Splunk's deployment server does not support CIDR based matching out of the box,
but they do support PCRE regex matching. I found this script online and
modified it slightly to match Splunk's specific regex variation. (Basically,
Splunk uses standards PCRE but replace the meaning of "." and "*" to act more
like traditional glob strings.) The values returned by this script can be
used in the serverclass.conf for either whitelist.<n> or blacklist.<n> values.
See the Splunk docs for more details.
Example usage:
echo "10.0.1.0/22" | python cidr2regex.py
Example output:
^10.0.[0-3].\d+$

Unable to run the code, give the error "inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation". I did few things to correct indentation, but still issues. Appreciate if you could have a look, it will be greatly useful
