It should be trivial to write one. IP address has a very simple format, 
it's 4 numbers 0-255 separated by 3 dots. I guess you can use wxRegEx 
class for it.

You can use regex like this:

\b(?:(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\b

Take a look here for details:
