Try like this

If this is to be extracted from raw data (_raw field),

your search 
| rex "URL\:\s*(?<IP_Address>\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)"

If this is to be extracted from some other field (for example from field name "Message"),

your search 
| rex field=Message "URL\:\s*(?<IP_Address>\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)"

Could you please explain how this works ==> \s*(?\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+)

See regex101.com

 \s = space
 \d+ = any number of digits
 \. = dot

This regex could identify non-ip addresses too. For example, it would match 1234.5678.9012.34567890 too, which is clearly not an up address.
