Someone asked me if i can make a perl scripts that can change the ip address based on time interval, say he want ip address 1.2.3.4 used within one hour, if done next ip address will be used within next one hour..and so on. when it came to highest number of ip address in array, they will be reset back to the start. first i suggest him to look at the articles i wrote. But then i decide to write Perl script which was made for the purposes mention above.

here we are..
