If you want to find (as in your example) an IP address, these are in the 
form
[[:digit:]]{1,3}\.[[:digit:]]{1,3}\.[[:digit:]]{1,3}
Which will work with any of the re functions in CF.

I'm not sure exactly what it is you want to do, so I can't be more 
specific, but if you need additional help, why not take it over to 
CF-Regex, where ninjas are standing by?
