/**

* Supported range specifications are:
* <p>
* <ul>
* <li>Full IPv4 address, e.g. {@code 12.34.56.78}</li>
* <li>Full IPv6 address, e.g. {@code 2001:18e8:3:171:218:8bff:fe2a:56a4}</li>
* <li>Partial IPv4 address, e.g. {@code 12.34} (which matches any IP starting
* {@code 12.34})</li>
* <li>IPv4 network/netmask, e.g. {@code 18.25.0.0/255.255.0.0}</li>
* <li>IPv4 or IPv6 CIDR slash notation, e.g. {@code 18.25.0.0/16},
* {@code 2001:18e8:3:171::/64}</li>
* </ul>

So, you'll need to express that address range as one or more CIDR
address/length expressions.
The matcher recognizes IPv6 addresses when they contain ":". No
square brackets are needed as with some other IP address parsers.
