I am looking for a network calculator that will take input in the form of,I remembered I wrote a script to do something like that a few years ago and I called it cidrcalc.
67.160.0.0 : 67.191.255.255, and output the IP block in cidr notation, 67.160.0.0/11.
To use it to get the example output you provided, call it as follows:
./cidrcalc 160 191 8 67.
The comments in the script say what that means, but in essence; varying from 160 thru 191 at an offset of 8 bits with a leading text string of those 8 bits of '67.' generate the cidr.
To pass the script 2 IP addresses as you suggested and have it figure out the bit offsets, etc would take a bit of additional scripting. Fix it as you see fit.

# This routine accepts 4 passed in parameters. # The starting IP octet value # The ending IP octet value. # A displacement constant. # A static prefix. # # The intent of this routine is to print out IP octets and CIDR values # that will encompass the range from starting octet to ending octet. # The need for this routine arose when we saw that a good portion of an # area of the world was serviced by a given range of IP addresses, and # we wanted to block that range in a firewall. # # As an example, suppose we want to block all the IP addresses from # 61.158.0.0 thru 61.189.255.255, and we need to specify this range in # CIDR notation. What we actually want to block are the networks 61.158 # 61.189. What varies is the range 158 through 189 with a displacement # of 8 bits which represents the static constant area between them namely # the 61 field. This routine would be called passing the parameters # 158 189 8 "61." to produce : # 61.158/15 # 61.160/12 # 61.176/13 # 61.184/14 # 61.188/15 # If the example were changed to block 123.61.158.00 thru 123.61.189.255, # the routine would be called passing 158 189 16 "123.61." to represent # that now 16 bits are static (123.61) and considered a displacement. # The output would be: # 123.61.158/23 # 123.61.160/20 # 123.61.176/21 # 123.61.184/22 # 123.61.188/23 # If the routine were called passing 158 189 16 "Hello there ", then the # output would be: # Hello There 158/23 # Hello There 160/20 # Hello There 176/21 # Hello There 184/22 # Hello There 188/23 # The prefix is applied with no processing. It is purely a convenience # for the user. # Note that the minimum execution would have DISPLACEMENT of 0, and a # PREFIX of "". Therefore, passing 158 189 0 "" produces: # 158/7 # 160/4 # 176/5 # 184/6 # 188/7 # That provides an answer as though the OCTETSTART and OCTETEND are for the # first octet of an IP address.
