What would be the > advantage or use case of using either trusted or address? I am not the developer of that function and haven't used it for a while. IIRC, it was added like 2003-2004 and kept being so. I use address table as it has more features in matching subnets and does pre-compilation of ip addresses, thus is fast.
If someone provides a patch for doing ip-based comparison for trusted table, it will be accepted. The C helper functions are available, so the patch should not be big (ipops module can be used as example of C code for comparing ip addresses).
