Hello Friend

I made a one login panel in which i want to save a user ip address when user login my panel.
so i want to know which particular ip i have to save.

As i know there is a public ip but it is change every time and static ip is so costly so normal people can't use it.so people take a public ip which is provided by BSNL or any other internet provider so i am confuse which ip address i have to save.

So please tell me that which ip address i have to save to trace particular user.

You don't have a big choice I think. Either it is static or usually dynamic from the provider.

You can't really "trace" it easily - you have access to the public IP directly via the UserHostAddress property[^] - but that's about as far as you can go.
Do note that this identifies the router they are using to connect, not the individual PC, Tablet or phone - you can't get that IP address (and it wouldn't mean anything anyway as it is only unique on the local network segment the user is working on)

Solution 1

Try below code to get local ip address

C#

public string LocalIPAddress()
 {
   IPHostEntry host;
   string localIP = "";
   host = Dns.GetHostEntry(Dns.GetHostName());
   foreach (IPAddress ip in host.AddressList)
   {
     if (ip.AddressFamily == AddressFamily.InterNetwork)
     {
       localIP = ip.ToString();
       break;
     }
   }
   return localIP;
 }

By using this i solved my problem

This code working on live not in locally
So after apply this code upload into server.

C#

private string GetPublicIpAddress()
   {
       String aip = (HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"] == null) ? HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress : HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
       return aip;
   }

            string ip = "0";
            ip = Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(ip))
            {
                string[] ipRange = ip.Split(',');
                ip = ipRange[0].Trim();
            }
            else
            {
                ip = Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
            }

Solution 6

Try

C#

string IPAddress = "";

String strHostName = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress.ToString();

IPAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString();
