Hi all, I'm trying to use the ip type in ES, but my IPs also have ports. That doesn't seem to be supported, which was a bit of a surprise! Does anyone know of a way to do this? Or does it sound like a good feature to add support for to this type? Thanks! Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Can you give an example what you mean by IP ports? Transport protocols like TCP has ports, but IP (Internet addresses) is used to address hosts on a network.

Hi Jorg, Here's an example: An ip field named as 'host' in mapping. "host": { "type" :"ip" }, Then I add below to ES POST /test\_index/test { "host":"127.0.0.1:80 [http://127.0.0.1/](http://127.0.0.1/)" } ES returns this error { "error": "MapperParsingException[failed to parse [host]]; nested: ElasticsearchIllegalArgumentException[failed to parse ip [127.0.0.1:80]]; nested: NumberFormatException[For input string: "1:80"]; ", "status": 400 } If I only post IP without port like this POST /test\_index/test { "host":"127.0.0.1" } ES return success. Does that help explain the issue? Thanks!

Right, but I was more wondering about the use case of supporting a port in _some_ fashion, in some type? Or is a string type the best type for holding an ip:port combination?

I don't see the value we can add here. For example, does a Range query on URL make sense? If it's only for breaking the string into two subfields at index time, it can be done by a plugin like the mapper attachment.

Of course, range queries make much sense. For example, over schemes, IP ranges /subnets, or subdomains, or host names. URL/URIs must also be canonicalized to make them comparable which is a non-trivial issue, not resolvable by regex/pattern parsing. URL/URIs data types are a building block for web crawlers. I do not see Logstash being a webcrawler such as Nutch, Heritrix, or Crawler4j My 2¢s.

Thanks guys for the discussion. I'm glad we're talking it through! For an immediate solution it is easy to parse off the port and and store it separately. Longer term I do see value in a url/uri type as Jorg mentions. Thanks again. Much appreciated!
