IP Address Sorting

kawhite_MB — Thu, 11 Feb 2021 16:54:09 GMT

This is probably petty but is there a way to get the CLI Analyzer to sort IP addresses properly?

Currently it sorts 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.10, 192.168.1.11, etc.

I would like it to sort 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3, etc.

I tried putting 001, 002, 003 as the last octet but it doesn't like that at all.

it depends router and IOS, why you like to use 001 instead of 1 (00 is no value beore any way)

some programs accept that format, some dont.

I'm speaking specifically regarding the Cisco CLI Analyzer program.

I don't "like" to use 001, I was only trying that to see if CLI Analyzer would sort properly that way.
