How do I use grep to output only the names of files that contain any ipv4 address
I am using Red Hat Enterprise 6 and I'm trying to search through the /etc/ directory for files that contain any IPv4 address.
linux files grep ipv4 ip-address

Sure:
grep -lrE '([0-9]{1,3}.){3}[0-9]{1,3}' /etc
- -l means list only matching files
- -r is recursive
- -E is extended regex
