This is documented behavior. See https://docs.python.org/3/library/ipaddress.html#ipaddress.IPv4Address "The following constitutes a valid IPv4 address: ... An integer packed into a bytes object of length 4 (most significant octet first). " And the example: >>> ipaddress.IPv4Address(b'\xC0\xA8\x00\x01') IPv4Address('192.168.0.1') So I'm going to close this as not a bug. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43769> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
