Description

Description: IP tags can only be loaded via the v2 configurations. Extend the filter to support reading IP tags from the file system.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study how IP tags are loaded from v2 configuration in the existing code, then implement file based loading by following patterns from other filters that support file system reads (e.g., file based health check config). Ensure proper file watching and reload support.
