Sorry, I forgot to escape those '.'s. 
That should have been:

egrep '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\|{2}' file.csv

Also it's worth noting that if this needs to be put to serious use, the [0-9]{1,3} chunks don't enforce that it's a valid IP address.  That will match 999.999.999.999|| quite happily.
