You said field1 is the same in both files, so you could include it in the search as well. grep could do it as well, but might be overwhelmed when it comes to really large files:
Code:
$ grep -Ff file1 file2
1.2.3.4 123.45.2.1 53 4000 2.5 30 21 43 .....
1.2.3.4 68.32.1.4   500 80 3.7 40 22 10 .....

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
