This file includes the definition of the ip_network class, which is a versatile representation of an IP network that can handle both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. It provides methods to retrieve network properties such as the network and broadcast addresses, netmask, and hostmask, as well as to check for various types of networks like multicast, private, global, reserved, loopback, link-local, unspecified, site-local and etc.

It integrates the ipv4_network and ipv6_network classes through a union, ensuring optimal space usage while maintaining the ability to represent both IP networks versions. This file is part of a larger library that aims to provide comprehensive support for network operations.
