Hi,
I'm receiving traps with some private enterprise OID with an octed-string
value which should represent an IP address. How can I make sure that the
value I receive is a valid IP address and not a random string? What I did
was:
IpAddress tmpIP(vb.get_printable_value());
if (tmpIP.valid()) {
// the octed-string is a valid IP address
...
} else {
// the octed-string is _not_ a valid IP address
...
}
but unfortunately it shows valid all the time even if the octed-string is,
eg, "test".
