ASP.NET Core – How to Get Client IP Address

asp.net-coreasp.net-core-mvcc++

Can you please let me know how to get client IP address in ASP.NET when using MVC 6.
Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"] does not work.

The API has been updated. Not sure when it changed but according to Damien Edwards in late December, you can now do this:

var remoteIpAddress = request.HttpContext.Connection.RemoteIpAddress;

You can use IHttpContextAccessor:

private IHttpContextAccessor _accessor;
public Foo(IHttpContextAccessor accessor)
{
    _accessor = accessor;
}

Now you get IP address this way"

var ip = _accessor.HttpContext.Connection.RemoteIpAddress.ToString();
