Watch out for those dots! In a RegEx they can mean literally any character.

Here's a sample that matches either of your IP ranges-

my @tests = <DATA>; chomp @tests; for my $test (@tests) { if ($test =~ /^123\.145\.14[6789]\.2$/ or ( $test =~ /^135\.168\.(\d\d?\d?)\.(\d\d?\d?)$/ and ( $1 >= 10 and $1 <= 115) and ( $2 >= 0 and $2 <= 125) ) ) { print "YES: $test\n"; } else { print "NO: $test\n"; } } __DATA__ 123.145.147.2 123.145.150.2 135.168.0.1 135.168.10.1 135.168.10.200 999 123.456.178 123.456.789.09 135.168.010.001

Output:

YES: 123.145.147.2 NO: 123.145.150.2 NO: 135.168.0.1 YES: 135.168.10.1 NO: 135.168.10.200 NO: 999 NO: 123.456.178 NO: 123.456.789.09 YES: 135.168.010.001

Notice that the last IP has some numbers starting with 0 - do you want to allow this?
