判断用户输入的是否为IP地址

#!/bin/bash
function check_ip(){
    IP=$1
    VALID_CHECK=$(echo $IP|awk -F. '$1< =255&&$2<=255&&$3<=255&&$4<=255{print "yes"}')
    if echo $IP|grep -E "^[0-9]{1,3}\\.[0-9]{1,3}\\.[0-9]{1,3}\\.[0-9] {1,3}$">/dev/null; then
        if [ $VALID_CHECK == "yes" ]; then
            echo "$IP available."
        else
            echo "$IP not available!"
        fi
    else
