Example:   222.1.41.90/23  maps to  ::FFFF:222.1.41.90/119

C# Code to convert CIDR from IPv4 to mapped IPv6 address

        public static byte ConvertIPv4toIPv6CIDR(this byte CIDRIPv4)
        {
            //IPv4 CIDR - https://www.keycdn.com/support/what-is-cidr
            //IPv6 range for IPv4 conversion, startfrom bottom

            if (CIDRIPv4 < 1 || CIDRIPv4 > 32) return 0; // /1-32 range accepted for ipv4

            int CIDRipv6 = 128 - (32 - CIDRIPv4); //lower is 96
            
            return (byte)CIDRipv6;
        }
