Good day. We trying to implement IPv6 address space management with postgres support, but I found few strange problems. One of them - problems with math. In IPv4 we can be sure, that inet'0.0.0.1' + N allows to get any address you want, because N < 2^64, and IPv4 is just 32-bit size. But IPv6 is differ. Let's assume we wants to get 'next' /64 range. Current range is inet'2a00:ab00:0:1/64'. We want next. Postgres do not allow adding inet + inet, so we need to add natural number. But 'next' /64 is 'just' 2^64. And postgres rejecting that operations because N is too large. ... And under some conditions we can use even /56 or /48 - which is really large numbers. If postgres allows to do something like that: inet'2a00:ab00:0:1/64' + inet'0:0:0:1/64' it should make life much easy. Or may be I miss something? Thanks.
