There are some operators that you can use.
col1 << col2 BOOLEAN indicating if col1 is a subnet of col2
col1 <<= col2 BOOLEAN indicating if col1 is equal or a subnet of col2
col1 >> col2 BOOLEAN indicating if col1 is a supernet of col2
col1 >>= col2 BOOLEAN indicating if col1 is equal or a supernet of col2
