Hi Perl Monks

i have a perl script

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

my $output = "ae4.5784     up    down inet     182.75.123.121/30";
if($output =~ m/(\d{1,3}\.\d{1-3}\.\d{1-3}\.\d{1-3})$/g)
{
    print "There is an IPdressAd in the output string\n";
}
else
{
    print "There is no IPAddress in the output string";
}

My requirement is to check if $output has an IPaddress in it or not. In above example - it contains an IP.
how to give the correct regular expression . The regular expression i have given is not working
