Implementation

@override
String validate(String line) {
  assert(
    version == either || version == ipv4 || version == ipv6,
    'The version nmust be AskValidatorIPAddress.either or '
    'AskValidatorIPAddress.ipv4 or AskValidatorIPAddress.ipv6',
  );

  final finalline = line.trim();

  if (!isIP(finalline, version)) {
    throw AskValidatorException(red('Invalid IP Address.'));
  }
  return finalline;
}
