Your problem here is quoting.  You need to escape the quotes around the
SQL strings so that the shell (I assume you're using Unix of some
flavour) doesn't interpret them:

        /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -d temp -c 'insert into
temp.ip_mapping_tb(ip,location)  values(\'192.100.9.51\',\'FirstFloor\')'


However, if I were you I would consider running via a file anyway - if
you save your query into a file then you can use

psql -d temp -f foo.sql

instead.  Within the file you can type your query exactly like it should
be with no special escaping required.

Hope this helps,

Robin

You're using single quotes inside single quotes, you'll need to either
escape them or switch to double-quotes for your outer string delimiter
(preferred). ie:

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -d temp -c "insert into temp.ip_mapping_tb(ip,
location) values('192.100.9.51','First Floor')"

have you tried using double quotes on your command instead of that single quote...

ex. psql -c "insert into table values('a', 'b')"
