Best way to index IP data?

[Kevin Kempter <kevin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi List;

We'll be loading a table with begining & ending I.P.'s - the table will likely 
have upwards of 30million rows.  Any thoughts on how to get the best 
performance out of queries that want to look for IP ranges or the use of 
between queries? Should these be modeled as integers? 

Thanks in advance

/Kevin
