We can get the clients IP address using the Request object’s(The Request object retrieves the values that the client browser passed to the server during an HTTP request. ) property Request.ServerVariables Collection.
Request.ServerVariables Collection gets the values of predetermined environment variables.
“REMOTE_ADDR” gets the IP address of the remote host making the request.
string ipaddr;
ipaddr = HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
here the string “ipaddr” stores the clients ip.
