Bitwise logical operators

Bitwise logical operators are very rarely used. With these operators, you are able to make bitwise operations on numeric values. One scenario where these operators are frequently used can be found in IPv4/IPv6 subnetting procedures:

Operator	Meaning	Description
-band	Bitwise AND	Returns the bitwise AND operation between left and right values.
-bor	Bitwise OR - inclusive	Returns the bitwise OR operation between left and right values.
-bxor	Bitwise OR - exclusive	Returns the bitwise XOR operation between left and right values.
-bnot	Bitwise NOT	Returns the bitwise NOT operation between left and right values.
