+- This filter reduces a list of addresses to only the addresses that match any of the given networks.
+- To check whether multiple addresses belong to any of the networks, use the reduce_on_networks filter.
+- To check which of the IP address of a host can be used to talk to another host, use the reduce_on_networks filter.
