possible to make Apache listen to ip range?

Question

Is it possible to make apache webserver listen to a ip range? for example using:

listen 192.168.0.*:80

or

listen 192.168.0.1/5:80

(these examples are for IPv4 but i need it for IPv6 range.)

it's not about adding to network interface. but selecting ip's for apache to listen to. — TD_Nijboer, Jul 01 '14 at 13:04
Tell it to listen on `[::]:80`, then it will listen on all IPs assigned to the host. — kasperd, Jul 01 '14 at 13:35

Unfortunately not. The only options are to either specify each address/port combination, like so:

Listen 192.168.0.1:80

or one port on all available interfaces, like so:

Listen 80

I think i'll go with a port listen than. specifying 65k ip addresses is not my cup of thee. thanks – TD_Nijboer Jul 01 '14 at 09:57
...Wow. I quite see your point, there! – Jenny D Jul 01 '14 at 09:58

Okey the way i wanted is not possible.
but.

Listen 80

and

<VirtualHost [2001:1FF8:4310:A005:0010::1]:80>

combined deliver sort of the same result.

although i would like to exclude some ip addresses for other services. but they are now diverted to 000-default
