Computes a four-octet internet protocol (IP) address from a 32-bit integer input. |
Source value must be a valid integer within the range specified by the formula below. A valid IPv4 address is in the following format:
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd |
NOTE: IPv6 addresses are not supported. |
The formula used to compute the integer equivalent of an IP address is the following:
(aaa * 2563) + (bbb * 2562) + (ccc * 256) + (ddd)
So, the formula to compute this IP address is the following:
| Input | aaa | bbb | ccc | ddd |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| X | aaa = floor(Input / (256 3 )) remainderA = Input - aaa | bbb = floor(remainderA / (256 2 )) remainderB = remainderA - bbb | ccc = floor(remainderB / 256) remainderC = remainderB - ccc | ddd = remainderC |
Output value:
Output = aaa + '.' + bbb + '.' + ccc + '.' + ddd
Numeric literal example:
ipfromint('16909060') |
Output: Returns the IP address 1.2.3.4.
Column reference example:
ipfromint(IpInt) |
Output: Returns the values of the IpInt column converted to an IP address value.
ipfromint(column_int) |
