Convert Hex to decimal (for IP address)

[cjbaccus]

I am getting SNMP data for a system that I manage, and need to put together reports monthly. The database stores the IP address information in Hex... so an example would be "C0 A8 01 01"
What would be the best way to convert this to a dotted decimal format: "192.168.1.1"?
Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,

I had a little fun and coded it for you

Code: Select all

function convertHexToDecIP(str)
{
    var i, ret = '', parts = str.split(" ");
    for (i = 0; i < parts.length; ++i)
    {
        if (i > 0)
            ret += '.';
        ret += parseInt(parts[i], 16);
    }
    return ret;
}

print(convertHexToDecIP("C0 A8 01 01"));
