How to detect dot (.), underscore(_) and dash(-) in regex [on hold]
I need to process information dealing with IP address or folders containing information about an IP host.
I need a pattern that can identify (match) IP addresses, whether an actual url, name of folder or data file . For example
127.0.0.10
127-0-0-10
127_0_0_10
should all match. above. Is there any tokenizer regex to do this in bash?

how are you matching? with wildcards? with grep? with a bash[[ =~ ]]test?

"I need a pattern that can identify (match) IP addresses, whether an actual url, name of folder or data file". Pretty much the only thing that will match all these requirements is a full wildcard.*, at which point you might as well abandon any idea of matching with REs. Or did you mean to match just the IP address component within those different types of string? Please be precise when describing what you need. Ideally provide examples of the different matches required.

The following regex seems to accomplish what you need:
b(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])[-._](25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])[-._](25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])[-._](25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])b
$ cat test.txt
127.0.0.10
127-0-0-10
127_0_0_10
256_5_10_1
10-10-100-1
192.168.100.1
$ grep -E 'b(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])[-._](25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])[-._](25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])[-._](25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9]?[0-9])b' test.txt

127-0-0-10
127_0_0_10
10-10-100-1
192.168.100.1
See https://www.regular-expressions.info/ip.html for an explanation of the regex. I have simply modified the .s with [-._] so that it will match -, ., or _.
