Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Problem with regexp for IP-Adress Pattern Post 302198554 by desertchannel on Friday 23rd of May 2008 07:18:48 AM

Hi ripat,

BRILLIANT! Thanks so much!

Your pattern is working (I guess you missed the NOT^ at the beginning of [.0-9]: [^.0-9] instead of [.0-9]):
Code:
'(^|[^.0-9])((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1?[0-9]?[0-9])\.){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1?[0-9]?[0-9])([^\.]|$)'


IT IS WORKING FINE, BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY

(^|[^.0-9]) = "beginning of the line" OR "not dot, not number"

((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1?[0-9]?[0-9])\.){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1?[0-9]?[0-9])= valid IP (range 0-255.0-255.0-255.0-255)

([^\.]|$) = "not backslash, not dot" OR "end of the line"

Am I interpreting the regexp correctly?

netmasks(4)                                                        File Formats                                                        netmasks(4)

NAME
netmasks - network mask database SYNOPSIS
/etc/inet/netmasks /etc/netmasks DESCRIPTION
The netmasks file contains network masks used to implement IP subnetting. It supports both standard subnetting as specified in RFC-950 and variable length subnetting as specified in RFC-1519. When using standard subnetting there should be a single line for each network that is subnetted in this file with the network number, any number of SPACE or TAB characters, and the network mask to use on that network. Network numbers and masks may be specified in the conventional IP `.' (dot) notation (like IP host addresses, but with zeroes for the host part). For example, 128.32.0.0 255.255.255.0 can be used to specify that the Class B network 128.32.0.0 should have eight bits of subnet field and eight bits of host field, in addition to the standard sixteen bits in the network field. When using variable length subnetting, the format is identical. However, there should be a line for each subnet with the first field being the subnet and the second field being the netmask that applies to that subnet. The users of the database, such as ifconfig(1M), perform a lookup to find the longest possible matching mask. It is possible to combine the RFC-950 and RFC-1519 form of subnet masks in the net- masks file. For example, 128.32.0.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.27.0 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.16 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.32 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.48 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.64 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.80 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.96 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.112 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.128 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.144 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.160 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.176 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.192 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.208 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.224 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.240 255.255.255.240 128.32.64.0 255.255.255.192 can be used to specify different netmasks in different parts of the 128.32.0.0 Class B network number. Addresses 128.32.27.0 through 128.32.27.255 have a subnet mask with 28 bits in the combined network and subnet fields (often referred to as the subnet field) and 4 bits in the host field. Furthermore, addresses 128.32.64.0 through 128.32.64.63 have a 26 bits in the subnet field. Finally, all other addresses in the range 128.32.0.0 through 128.32.255.255 have a 24 bit subnet field. Invalid entries are ignored. SEE ALSO
