How to get the server IP Address (in C# / asp.net)?
Request.ServerVariables["LOCAL_ADDR"];
From the docs:
Returns the server address on which the request came in. This is important on computers where there can be multiple IP addresses bound to the computer, and you want to find out which address the request used.
This is distinct from the Remote addresses which relate to the client machine.
From searching the net I found following code: (I couldn't find a single line method there)
string myHost = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName();
// Show the hostname
MessageBox.Show(myHost);
// Get the IP from the host name
string myIP = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(myHost).AddressList[index].ToString();
// Show the IP
MessageBox.Show(myIP);
-> where index is the index of your ip address host (ie. network connection).

As other(s) have posted, System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry
is the way to go. When you access the AddressList
property, you'll want to take the AddressFamily
property into account, as it could return both IPv4 AND IPv6 results.
