I can get the clients IP Address using:
Context.Request.UserHostAddress;
Context.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
Context.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
What is difference between these and when should i Use these different to get clients (accessing the webservice) IP address
i'm totally new to the asp.net mvc stack and i was wondering what happened to the simple Page object and the Request ServerVariables object? basically what i wanted to do is to pull out the client's pc ip address. but i fail to understand how the current MVC structure has changed all of this. as far as i can understand, most of the variable object has been replaced by the HttpRequest variants? really a sea of stuff to learn in the asp.net mvc world :) For example i have a static class with this current function. how do i get the same result using asp.net mvc?
public static int getCountry(Page page)
{
return getCountryFromIP(getIPAddress(page));
}
public static string getIPAddress(Page page)
{
string szRemoteAddr = page.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
string szXForwardedFor = page.Request.ServerVariables["X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
string szIP = "";
if (szXForwardedFor == null)
{
szIP = szRemoteAddr;
}
else
{
szIP = szXForwardedFor;
if (szIP.IndexOf(",") > 0)
{
string [] arIPs = szIP.Split(',');
foreach (string item in arIPs)
{
if (!isPrivateIP(item))
{
return item;
}
}
}
}
return szIP;
}
And how do i call this function from the controller page?
How to get client IP Address in asp.net.
View 6 RepliesHow to get client ip address in asp.net.
View 2 RepliesI have an asp app we use to collect data. I did not write this and I know nothing about asp, however I am tasked with modifying the app. I am trying to collect the ip address of the client and put it in a text box. First piece of code is where I added the new text box.
Code:
<tr><td>Facility:</td><td><input id="facility" onfocus="processgetip(event)" /></td></tr>
I then created a function named processgetip
Code:
function processgetip(event) {
// Within this function, make an AJAX call to get the IP Address
$.ajax('@Url.Action("GetIPAddress","getipaddress")', function (ip) {
// When this call is done, your IP should be stored in 'ip', so
// You can use it how you would like
// Example: Setting a TextBox with ID "YourElement" to your returned IP Address
$("#facility").val(ip);
});
}
I then created a controller named getipaddress:
Code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Http;
[code]...
Now with all of that it will compile and run using the localhost but it's not working. Not getting any errors it just doesn't return anything.
I used following methods
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"]
Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_HOST"]
Request.UserHostAddress
Request.UserHostName
All the above are returning "127.0.0.1", not the actual IP.
The below one returns null.
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"]
Below one always returns where the application is hosted/running, not the client's IP address.
string strHostName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName();
string clientIPAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString();
How to get MAC address of client machine in c# and vb.net
View 3 Replieshow to get the client IP address,
I have tried all of the below things , but I am getting the same output 127.0.0.1
[Code]....
how can I get the correct IP !
I am running an ASP.NET application. The web server is located on the same system. In the code behind I just want to get the IP address of the requesting client. I am using this code:
Request.UserHostAddress
But I am getting a wrong address: 127.0.0.1. My system IP address is 198.162.0.27.
Finding client Ip address i am using
string ip1 =
Context.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
string ip2 = Context.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
these two are not giving correct IP address, it is giving 127.0.0.1.
Is there a fairly simple way to acquire a client's MAC address from an ASP.Net web application.
I'm 4.0 all the way, and I'm using Visual Studio 2010.

The one jmccarthy linked too, is not the same. My requests are NOT coming from a web browser. I should have been more clear.
i need to get a client IP Address, which is connect in the LAN, i tried multiple method,
1)Request.UserHostAddress
2)Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
3) Dim strHostName As String = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()
Dim clientIPAddress As String = System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString()
Response.Write("
.clientIPAddress--" & clientIPAddress)
4)Dim ipHost As IPHostEntry
ipHost = Dns.GetHostEntry(Dns.GetHostName())
Response.Write(ipHost.AddressList(0))
im getting only the server IP address means where the application is hosted, i need Client IP Address which is available in msconfig, like IPAddress, Subnet Mask....
I have designed web application..where i need to show ip address of logged client..i m using like this

What need to show the ip address of client on my webstie....
I have a web site where I need to capture the IP address of the logged in user. Earlier my code used to work fine. But all of a sudden it is giving me only one IP address from whichever machine may be the user logging in. I have tried almost all possibilites :
Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR")
Request.UserHostAddress()
Still it is giving me the same IP address.
We need the a solution for our ASP.NET website. in which a user needs to activate his machine and next time if he visits the site then we need to check the machine is activated or not. if the machine is activated then we want to redirect the user on different page.
Is there any way by which we can get the client machine MAC address and store it our database?

View 5 RepliesI am using ASP.NET (.asmx) web services with Silverlight. Since there is no way to find the client IP address in Silverlight, I had to log this on the service end.
These are some methods I have tried:
Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_HOST")
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"]
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
Request.UserHostAddress()
Request.UserHostName()
string strHostName = Dns.GetHostName();
string clientIPAddress = Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString();
All the above methods work fine on my local system, but when I publish my service on a production server, it starts giving errors, Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. StackTrace:
