How to match only IP Address from two files; but leaving a specific text intact in bash-CodePudding

I have two files; can considered it as columns; but I need to exctract only the one that has ip address. If in both files there is text file; then can leave that intact. I tried "join" and awk without success.. Here is the output and the desired output.

FILE1            FILE2               Desired Output (FILE 3)
192.168.217.36   d0:d3:e0:cb:dc:f4   192.168.217.36
192.168.229.70   20:4c:03:59:ed:6a   192.168.229.70
No_IP_Found      192.168.197.181     192.168.197.181
192.168.230.81   192.168.230.81      192.168.230.81
No_IP_Found      No_IP_Found         No_IP_Found
No_IP_Found      84:d4:7e:cf:5c:9c   No_IP_Found

Assumptions:

if both files contain an (ipv4) ip address then print the one from file1
both files have the same number of lines
all lines contain a single field (with no embedded spaces); otherwise we only process the first space delimited field

One awk idea:

awk '
BEGIN   { regex="([0-9]{1,3}.){3}[0-9]{1,3}" }            # define the (ipv4) ip address regex
FNR==NR { a[FNR]=$1; next }                               # 1st file: save field #1, skip to next input line
        {      if (a[FNR] ~ regex) print a[FNR]           # 2nd file: if 1st file had valid ip address then print it
          else if ($1     ~ regex) print $1               # else if 2nd file has valid ip address then print it
          else                     print "No_IP_Found"    # else print default
        }
' file1 file2

This generates:

192.168.217.36
192.168.229.70
192.168.197.181
192.168.230.81
No_IP_Found
No_IP_Found

Using paste because I'm lazy:

paste FILE1 FILE2 |
awk '
    {
         if (match($0,/[0-9]{1,3}(\.[0-9]{1,3}){3}/))
             print substr($0,RSTART,RLENGTH)
         else
             print "No_IP_Found"
    }
'

192.168.217.36
192.168.229.70
192.168.197.181
192.168.230.81
No_IP_Found
No_IP_Found

awk '{$1~/\./?$0=$1:($2~/\./?$0=$2:$0="NO_IP_Found")}1' <(paste FILE1 FILE2)

if you don't care about sorted order, here's a strange way to go it that filters out either ipv6 or MAC addresses but doesn't verify the ipv4 ones :

{m,g}awk '___[$_]  <(NF*=NF==!_) || (__==$_)==(FNR-___[__])' \
                                     __='No_IP_Found'  FS=':' file1 file2

192.168.217.36
192.168.229.70
No_IP_Found
192.168.230.81
192.168.197.181
No_IP_Found
