RE: Executing SQL (postgresql) to get results?

[Kevin Brown <Kevin.M.Brown () asu edu>]

 The ip address are store in the database as one number rather than four
octets of numbers as in the pre-100 schema.  I know there is functions in
MySQL to do the conversion back to a dotted octet, but don't know about
Postgres.

e.g. 120.210.140.16 would be store in the database as:

120 * 256^3 + 210 * 256^2 + 140 * 256 + 16 = 2027064336

Subject: [Snort-users] Executing SQL (postgresql) to get results?

I am wanting to create a view in postgresql to show me the signature
ipsrc 
ipdst and timestamp and I can' figure out how I would do this with the
way 
the database is currently setup. I see no reference to any ip addresses 
anywhere in the database. The reason I am wanting to do this is because
I 
am currently using ACID and its slow as Christmas archiving and deleting

data from the database. I want to use EXPLAIN to test out why this is
the 
case. Thanks again.
