Openssl s_client verify_ip usage on ip wildcard matching

[Edward Tsang via openssl-users <openssl-users@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

Does verify_ip supports leftmost wildcard?

I know that hostname does for SAN and CN. But ip address seems to only support exact match including the port?

Is that observation correct? 

What does it take for  verify_ip to support leftmost wildcard matching just like DNS hostname? 

Thanks
