IIRC = If I Recall Correctly.

Network addresses are stored as an array of bytes, ie;
* Network address type - 1 byte
* Network address length - 1 byte
* Network address - variable length

Types are 1=IPX, 2=IP (several other are used as well, ie AFP etc). You
use the type when decoding the address. Problem is that Auditcon only
knows IPX and thus never checks the address type, so in your example it
tries to decode an IP address as an IPX one, ie network:node. The node
part is undefined for an IP address so in your example:

0A230BB2:4C802E004300

0A230BB2 = IP Address
4C802E004300 = Garbage

If you use SetAud, then it decodes those addresses correctly.
