I'm trying to parse this string:

+CGDCONT: **0**,"IP","free","**10**.**158**.**88**.**34**"

In bold are the items i'm interested in.

My first attempt was to use this pattern:

"+CGDCONT: %d,\"IP\",\"%*s\",\"%d.%d.%d.%d\""

with it, only 1 variable is parsed.

Then, I tried:

"+CGDCONT: %d,\"IP\",\"free\",\"%d.%d.%d.%d\"  // the string "free" is hard coded

It works but "free" might not be always "free", so I need a way to ignore it.

Then, I tried:

"+CGDCONT: %d,\"IP\",\"%s\",\"%d.%d.%d.%d\"  // the string "free" is no more optional

With it, 2 variables are parsed. The second one (%s) is parsed as

free","10.158.88.34"\8  // \8 is ascii char 8.

How should I do?
