Hello all,
How can we convert this to regular IP?
I tried using the below search but it's not converting correctly.
Below is the sample event:

| rex "(?i)(?<d1>[0-9A-F]{2})(?<d2>[0-9A-F]{2})(?<d3>[0-9A-F]{2})(?<d4>[0-9A-F]{2})"
 | eval ip=tostring(tonumber(d1,16))+"."+tostring(tonumber(d2,16))+"."+tostring(tonumber(d3,16))+"."+tostring(tonumber(d4,16))

SYMNP-SMI::enterprises."9.9.42.1.3.2.1.8.13.3197256382.1.1" = "0x0aa0a04b"
