smit-aterlo opened a new issue #10817:
URL: https://github.com/apache/druid/issues/10817


   ### Motivation
   
   Druid already has IPv4 Functions as follow:
   
   - IPV4_MATCH: Check if IP address belongs to a subnet
   - IPV4_PARSE: Convert string IP address to integer
   - IPV4_STRINGIFY: Convert integer IP address to string
   
   So adding IPv6 Functions makes it more usable with networking databases.
   
   ### Proposed changes
   
   Adding IPv6 Function for SQL as follow:
   
   - IPV6_MATCH: Check if IP address belongs to a subnet
   
   Not adding function to convert into number as IPv6 represents 128bits.
   
   ### Rationale
   
   The approach is achieving this by using the library 
https://github.com/janvanbesien/java-ipv6 as 
`org.apache.commons.net.util.SubnetUtils` does not provide IPv6 support. I can 
help to achieve this functionality. If you have any better library to use 
please suggest.
   
   Thank you
