Description

Currently the WHOIS GUI only accepts domain names. Entering an IP address (e.g. 83.65.246.198) shows “Enter a valid Domain Name”, so IP WHOIS lookups are not possible.

Expected behavior
- Accept IPv4/IPv6 as valid input
- If input is an IP, perform a network/RIR lookup (RIPE/ARIN/APNIC/etc.), preferably via RDAP, and show allocation info (netblock/org/abuse)

Steps to reproduce
1. Open Tools -> WHOIS
2. Enter 83.65.246.198
3. Error: “Enter a valid Domain Name”
