Efficient IP Address Management with CIDR Tries in Rust

What is a CIDR trie and how can it help you? ๐Ÿ”—

The text discusses the concept of CIDR trie and its application in managing IP addresses and subnets in a Rust project. It addresses the problem of efficiently checking incoming requests against a list of allowed IP addresses and introduces the CIDR notation as a compact way to represent an IP address range. The CIDR trie data structure is explained, along with its implementation in Rust using a specialized trie. The post highlights the efficiency of the CIDR trie in searching for IP addresses and suggests potential improvement ideas.
