How would you match Parenthesis in Perl?

I want to be able to grab the IP address in (10.205.143.238).

I found out escaping them with '/' works.  The following worked for me:

/(\(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+\))/  #This prints out (10.205.143.238)

How about if I wanted to just grab the IP address itself?

Put the capturing parentheses *inside* the literal parentheses.
