php - regex to return ip addresses from lines of text

Question

I'm trying to use a regex to capture ip addresses in lines of text. Right now it's kind of screwed up. My code returns ip addresses when lines of text don't contain ip addresses and sometimes it returns "Script)". What am I doing wrong? I would like to return the ip addresses of lines that actually have them, and return nothing if they don't.

PHP

if(preg_match('/^\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}$/', $line, $ip_matches)) {
    $client_ips = $ip_matches[1];
}

print "<pre>;
print_r($client_ips);
print "</pre>";

Output

207.230.229.204
207.230.229.204
207.230.229.204
207.230.229.204

Consider removing the beginning of string ^ and end of string $ anchors seeing how your IP addresses are not at the beginning/end of the string in your provided text.

if (preg_match('/\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}/', $line, $ip_match)) {
   echo $ip_match[0];
}

If you want all IP addresses, use preg_match_all()

preg_match_all('/\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}/', $line, $ip_matches);
print_r($ip_matches[0]);
