For some definitions of "ok". Seen an IP like: 987.654.321.0 ?? Or how
about, 255.255.255.255.1.3.4.5.6 ?? I am assuming you had at least four
of those C<\d{1,3}\.> in the mix and hopefully a trailing C<$>.
If you really want to match IPs you might consider checking out the
excellent Mastering Regex book,
(?:[01]?\d\d?|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.
Gives you a hint, so cool. You may also be interested in the
Regexp::Common suite.
