Storing awk output into variables

Hi all,

Currently, i have a log file seperated by 'tab' and each record starting with a new line. i managed to retrieve the column that i'm interested in. (source_ip_address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). [in shell scripting]

example of awk output: '{ print $43 }' assuming the field is at column 43.
10.10.10.10
12.1.1.2
10.0.0.1
10.0.0.25

however, i've a problem storing each line of ip_address to variables in shell scripting. eventually, i will need to retrieve each line of ip_address (variable) and process some functions to it.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated!

IPSEC_PORTOF(3) 					     Library Functions Manual						   IPSEC_PORTOF(3)

NAME
ipsec_portof, ipsec_setportof, ipsec_sockaddrof, ipsec_sockaddrlenof - get port field of an ip_address, set port field of an ip_address, get pointer to internal sockaddr of an ip_address, get length of internal sockaddr of an ip_address SYNOPSIS
#include <libreswan.h> int portof(const ip_address *src); void setportof(int port, ip_address *dst); struct sockaddr *sockaddrof(ip_address *src); size_t sockaddrlenof(const ip_address *src); DESCRIPTION
The <libreswan.h> internal type ip_address contains one of the sockaddr types internally. Reliance on this feature is discouraged, but it may occasionally be necessary. These functions provide low-level tools for this purpose. Portof and setportof respectively read and write the port-number field of the internal sockaddr. The values are in network byte order. Sockaddrof returns a pointer to the internal sockaddr, for passing to other functions. Sockaddrlenof reports the size of the internal sockaddr, for use in storage allocation. SEE ALSO
inet(3), ipsec_initaddr(3) DIAGNOSTICS
Portof returns -1, sockaddrof returns NULL, and sockaddrlenof returns 0 if an unknown address family is found within the ip_address. HISTORY
Written for the FreeS/WAN project by Henry Spencer. BUGS
These functions all depend on low-level details of the ip_address type, which are in principle subject to change. Avoid using them unless really necessary. 8 Sept 2000 IPSEC_PORTOF(3)
