Hi PerlMonks,

many thanx for your help!
I try to specify everything better this time.
So I have two example files, which should be produced by my script, (to reach this state is no problem):

File: route_1

3 r26-lo1-ixi1.vie.as1901.net (193.154.162.15)
4 r4-vlan-167-ixi1.vie.as1901.net.167.154.193.in-addr.arpa (193.154.167.1)
5 msw02-01-w15-vlan-145-dbg2.vie.at.eu.net (193.154.145.19)
6 194.96.203.74 (194.96.203.74)

File: route_2

3 r26-lo1-ixi1.vie.as1901.net (193.154.162.15)
4 r4-vlan-167-ixi1.vie.as1902.net.167.154.193.in-addr.arpa (193.154.167.1)
5 msw02-01-w15-vlan-145-dbg2.vie.at.eu.net (193.154.145.19)
6 64.233.174.114 (64.233.174.114)
7 194.96.203.74 (194.96.203.74)

Diff:

diff route_1 route_2
2c2
< 4 r4-vlan-167-ixi1.vie.as1901.net.167.154.193.in-addr.arpa (193.154.167.1)
---
> 4 r4-vlan-167-ixi1.vie.as1902.net.167.154.193.in-addr.arpa (193.154.167.1)
4c4,5
< 6 194.96.203.74 (194.96.203.74)
---
> 6 64.233.174.114 (64.233.174.114)
> 7 194.96.203.74 (194.96.203.74)

There are two differences, which I made in the route. My question is how to interpret the diff output? I mean, how to count the diffs in the route? A diff in a route is for example if a IP or hostname of a hop is changed or there is a new hop... I would like count to the diffs, but I do not know what to do with the diff output, how to parse it.

Many thanx for any help!
