Check whether an IP address is valid with is_valid,
IPv4 with is_ipv4, IPv6 with is_ipv6, or multicast (intended to point to
multiple machines) with is_multicast
is_multicast(ip_addresses) is_ipv4(ip_addresses) is_ipv6(ip_addresses) is_valid(ip_addresses)
a vector of TRUE or FALSE values, indicating whether an IP is multicast or not, or NA values if the IP addresses are NAs.
ip_classify for character rather than logical classification.
# This is multicast is_multicast("224.0.0.2")#> [1] TRUE #># It's also IPv4 is_ipv4("224.0.0.2")#> [1] TRUE #># It's not IPv6 is_ipv6("224.0.0.2")#> [1] FALSE #>
