Hello,
I am trying to convert a hex number that is stored in a mysql db into an ip
address. Here is my problem: I can convert the original integer into a hex
number like so:
For example:
mysql> select distinct HEX(ip_src) from iphdr;
-----------
|ip_src |
-----------|
|80B7EB99 |
|----------
Now, I need mysql to parse the hex number and then convert the parsed data
into base 10. For example:
80B7EB99 (hex) = 128.183.235.153
to convert the hex into the ip address, we need to do this:
80 (hex) = 128
B7 (hex) = 183
EB (hex) = 235
99 (hex) = 153
so I need mysql to parse the hex number into 4 parts, convert each part
from hex to base 10, and then add a "." between each base 10 number.
I know how to do this in perl, but I was wondering if it was possible to do
strictly in mysql. I really hope so because it would help out a lot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
-jamil
