Some proxy servers might include this information in either the Forwarded[^] or X-Forwarded-For[^] headers. However, most do not, and this information is easy to forge.

For the most part, the local IP address does not leave the local LAN, and would be meaningless outside of the local LAN.

yes, we need this for our local auditing purpose. facing difficulty to capture this :)

As I said, it usually doesn't escape the local LAN, and wouldn't have much meaning if it did. How were you planning to differentiate between 15 users from different networks, all with the local IP address 192.160.0.42?

And the optional headers which might pass that information through are easy to forge, so they're not much use for auditing.

The only time I can recall seeing the local IP address exposed is when there's a security vulnerability in the browser. Those tend to get fixed pretty quickly, so even if you found one, you couldn't rely on it.
