It appears to be a variation on a quadtree; actually, its kindof a hybrid of a quadtree and scattergraph.

While DBD::Chart implements a quadtree, I doubt it could handle this. Actually, I'm having some difficulty understanding precisely what the image truely represents. I get the bit about clustering IP address ranges, and that "listed" IP address ranges are in red, but what the rest of the space represents is a bit sketchy (maybe the lower rt corner is IP multicast ? And/or some illegal address range ?) What do the grey areas represent ?

Its probably possible to generate something close w/ DBD::Chart, but I suspect it will take a loooong time to render, since it requires a lot of recursion.
