How can I get the client's IP address in ASP.Net MVC 4 razor and put it in the table of my Model ?
i tried this :
var Ip = this.HttpContext.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];

but it's return me "::1"
i suppose that it's in ipv6

it's a true Ip on my computer (or browser). If it's true, i will not affray because i know that i'm connet to a localhost of visual.

Plz help me

Thank

I don't know the answer for sure. But based on my limited knowledge, be very aware.
- You might get a 192.168.1.15 which is a private address; within an ISP, they will be unique; but you somewhere in the world using ispA and I in South Africa using ispB can have that same address.
- If your visitors visit the website from their work, there is a good chance that they go through a proxy and you might get the address of the proxy instead of that of the user; and for all the users in that company you will get the same address.
So it depends on your needs if it's useful or not.

Hello Sir,
I suspected in this response.
So when I go to my online application I would get a more consistent as IP: 192.168.1.15? Or I have to make a convertion?
