This file defines the ip_any_iterator class template, which facilitates the unified traversal over both IPv4 and IPv6 address spaces. It abstracts the differences between the two IP versions, allowing users to write code that can operate on either IP version without modification. This is particularly useful for applications that need to be agnostic to the type of IP network they are working with, such as network utilities, security scanners, or dual-stack network implementations. The iterator provides random access capabilities, making it suitable for a wide range of algorithms that require iteration over IP addresses.
