You may find this function useful too.

public static class ExtensionMethods
{
  public static int CompareTo(this IPAddress x, IPAddress y)
  {
    var result = x.AddressFamily.CompareTo(y.AddressFamily);
    if (result != 0)
      return result;

    var xBytes = x.GetAddressBytes();
    var yBytes = y.GetAddressBytes();

    var octets = Math.Min(xBytes.Length, yBytes.Length);
    for (var i = 0; i < octets; i++)
    {
      var octetResult = xBytes[i].CompareTo(yBytes[i]);
      if (octetResult != 0)
        return octetResult;
    }
    return 0;
  }
}
