Yes, this is correct.  However, what you presented was not an IP address, it
was bracketed letters:

<rnddg[2]>.<rnddg[2]>.<rnddg[2]>.<rnddg[2]>

This is clearly not a valid hostname, bracketed or not.  In face, even if
all of the letter above were numbers, in the format shown about, it is still
not a valid bracketed IP address.
