How can I split (delimit) and select only certain value?

IP Field in IIS log is like below.

100.30.24.56,+11.44.66.778,+120.33.44.15,12.567.89.666

I want to get only the IP before first comma. (100.30.24.56 in this case). 

Tried something like below but no luck.

eval IP=split(IP,",")

You were halfway there.  The split function returns a multi-value field.  The next step is to extract the first entry in that multi-value field.

| eval IP=split(IP,",")
| eval IP=mvindex(IP, 0)
