@Rudic i tried your solution:

However, I do not get the desired output. Below is how i debug your code:

Code:
iplist=$1
declare -A IPASS
IFS=,
for i in $iplist;
   do
     echo "Value is:$i"
     IPASS[$i]=${#IPASS[@]};
   done

echo "Printing ARRAY:${IPASS[*]}"

IFS=$' \t\n'

{ while read LN
    do [ ${IPASS[$LN]} ] &&     { RC=${IPASS[$LN]}
                                  unset IPASS[$LN]
                                }
        echo "$RC">>moht.txt
        echo "$LN">>moht1.txt
    done < file
  for i in ${!IPASS[@]}
    do
      echo ":$i:" >> checkthis.txt
      echo "*${IPASS[$i]}*" >> checkthis1.txt
    done
} |
    sort -s | cut -f2-

Neither checkthis.txt or checkthis1.txt is generated.

moht1.txt has the unsorted IP filedetails listings.

Can you please guide me as to how I can redirect the output of your code to a file so that I have the desired output shared in the original post. I also tried sort -s | cut -f2- >> final_output.txt but it too did not have the desired output.
