I am having an issue with Regular expression, I need the most efficient regex that
match IP address and in range of 255 only.
I tried this one "ip_pattern = '\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}'
" , but it does match even numbers over 255, such as 321.222.11.4
This should do it:
^(?:(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)$
Use this Regex. It will match and check the IP range within 255.
\b(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[0-1]?[0-9]?[0-9]).(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[0-1]?[0-9]?[0-9]).(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[0-1]?[0-9]?[0-9]).(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[0-1]?[0-9]?[0-9])\b
