  • Patent number: 12615233
    Abstract: The described systems and techniques provide improved storage for overlapping IP address ranges and improved access to a given IP address's membership in the stored overlapping IP address ranges, in constant, O(1) access time with respect to the number of IP ranges stored or number of overlaps. The systems and technique include receiving an IP address, generating a positional score for the IP address, querying a positional data set containing a plurality of positional values using the positional score to find a first matching positional value, and querying a tag storage set containing a plurality of tag identifiers (IDs) using the first matching positional value to find a tag identifier (ID) from the plurality of tag IDs matching the first matching positional value, where the tag ID contains one or more tags with each of the one or more tags identifying a range of IP addresses containing the IP address.
