Match an IP range using egrep - bash
The input file:
$ cat myhosts.txt
172.22.21.123 mickwe
172.22.21.11 tests1
172.22.21.38 tests3
172.22.21.34 tests3
172.22.21.13 devenv3
172.22.21.9 dennet5
172.22.21.20 lic4
172.22.21.50 tests6
Required: Match IP range from 172.22.21.1 to 172.22.21.35 from the above file.
The solution using egrep is:
$ egrep '172\.22\.21\.([1-9]|(1[0-9]|2[0-2]|3[0-5])) ' myhosts.txt
Output:
172.22.21.11 tests1
172.22.21.34 tests3
172.22.21.13 devenv3
172.22.21.9 dennet5
172.22.21.20 lic4

Thank you. I would use a regular expression not only with egrep.
egrep '([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}' /etc/hosts
