''' 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.
