Need to assign ip address to a description

I need to create a new field called ip_address_location and for each IP address perform an if. So like this:

if ip = "1.1.1." assign "site_abc" in ip_address_location
if ip = "1.1.2.
" assign "site_efg" in ip_address_location

etc.

Any suggestions?

A lookup is the ideal solution to this.

Specifically with a cidr match:

Unfortunately, I do not have permission to modify configuration files.

If you have permission to upload a lookup csv file, you can do the rest of the process via the UI
