"""
Notes:
 - ip field MUST be manually altered to be an unsigned int.

Usage:

class SessionIP(models.Model):
    ip = RealIPAddressField(db_index = True)

_s = SessionIP.objects.get(ip='1.2.3.4') # works
_s.ip = '2.3.4.5'; _s.save() # works
SessionIP.objects.filter(id = _s.id).update(ip = '1.2.3.4') # doesn't work!

"""

    description = _("Real IP Address field")

    empty_strings_allowed = False

        'invalid': _('Please enter a valid IP Address (x.x.x.x)'),
    }
