program/scrpt wanted (in python, of course)

A list to test would make it easier.
Here something I threw together. Might get you started.

ip_address = [
    '192.168.0.1',
    '192.168.0.5',
    '20.101.24.5',
    '101.17.31.8',
    '41.37.101.40',
    '41.37.101.4'
    ]
    
def sort_ip(key):
    if key.count('.') == 3:
        return 4, [k.rjust(3) for k in key.split('.')]
    else:
        # need more data for dealing with ipv6 address
        return 6, [k.rjust(4) for k in key.split(':')]
    
def main():    
    ip_address.sort(key=sort_ip)
    for ip in ip_address:
        print(ip)
    
main()
