# Subnet/IP Address Matching

Minions can easily be matched based on IP address, or by subnet (using CIDR notation).

    salt -S 192.168.40.20 test.version
    salt -S 2001:db8::/64 test.version

Ipcidr matching can also be used in compound matches

    salt -C 'S@10.0.0.0/24 and G@os:Debian' test.version

It is also possible to use in both pillar and state-matching

    '172.16.0.0/12':
       - match: ipcidr
       - internal
