If you mean that the image itself displays an IP address use the ocr Image::OCR::Tesseract module from CPAN.

Update: Changed module.

Yes the image contain ip address and i need to get that ip address into a variable using perl

Then use the updated module I suggested. If you need help installing modules see Installing Modules from the tutorials section of the site.

When i try to install that module its giving me the below error "# Failed test 'get_ocr()' # at t/02_Image_OCR_Tesseract.t line 72. . . . .

Did you install the dependencies as mentioned in the README file?

Do you have an example? Perhaps you could paste it here
