Description
Given a valid IPv4 address, return a defanged version of that IP address. A defanged IP address replaces every period "." with "[.]".
Examples
Input:
address = "1.1.1.1"Output:
"1[.]1[.]1[.]1"Explanation:
Defang the IP.
Input:
address = "192.168.0.1"Output:
"192[.]168[.]0[.]1"Explanation:
Replace each of the 3 periods in the private IP address with '[.]' to defang it, making it safe for display in security contexts.
Input:
address = "10.0.0.255"Output:
"10[.]0[.]0[.]255"Explanation:
Transform the IP address by substituting all periods with '[.]' brackets - this prevents the address from being interpreted as a clickable link.
