Need help matching a number

Using PERL.

I have a variable called number. I need to match a range. The number can be no bigger than 6777 and no smaller than 2000. The number will always begin with a 2, 4, or 6. The next three numbers will range between 1 and 7.


$number = xxxx

I'm trying something like this but I don't have the syntax right


if ($number eq "[2,4,6][1-7][1-7][1-7]")

It should match something like this: 2764
It shouldn't match something like this: 3764

Thanks in advance for the help!
