Modular input validation Introspection

Hello, I can't seem to get my validation using match. Hoping some one can tell me what I am doing wrong or missing.


<arg name="name">
<title>Device Name or IP</title>
<description>FQDN or IP Address. For example, 10.1.173.1 or INTFW-ASA700-vc.MYDomain.net.
</description>
<validation>
validate(match('name', '^((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9]).){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])$'), "Device Name or IP: invalid DNS or IP")
</validation>
</arg>

Thanks in advance
