I’m not quite sure what you want. An IP address may be used by one or many anonymous contributors (workplaces, universities and schools can often appear to Wikipedia as a single IP address). Each of those contributors may make one or more edits. Each of those edits may be vandalism (a deliberate intention to damage and hopefully reverted), poor quality but good faith edits (which are reverted for a wide variety of reasons) or acceptable contributions.
Also there is a reluctance to block a known multi-user IP address because of misbehaviour by what appears to be one person. So, when you say “IP addresses that are vandalism”, can you more specific about what you want or don’t want?
