in reply to Regex to catch IPV4 and IPV6 whenever ip appears withing brackets
The latest version of Regexp::Common::net is said to support IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses, but I cannot say how complete the support is for IPv6. See Regexp::Common for instructions on how to use the net (and other) module extension(s); it's slightly roundabout.
