We have to match the ip of the customer in the database.
Please suggest the ways to store all the ips in our database.
Can we have the individual ips stored or a range or starting blocks and ending blocks.
Which will be the most efficient and praticable solution?

Please keep in mind that the total number of IP's world wide will be large.

Thanks
Deven

IP addresses for most of the internet are dynamic. They change from minute to minute. What earthly purpose could this database serve ???
