To get Public IP: public static string GetPublicIP() { string myPublicIp = "" ; WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create( "https://api.ipify.org/" ); using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse()) using (StreamReader stream = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())) { myPublicIp = stream.ReadToEnd(); } return myPublicIp; } To Get Local IP: publicl static string GetLocalIpAddress() { UnicastIPAddressInformation mostSuitableIp = null ; var networkInterfaces = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces(); foreach (var network in networkInterfaces) { if (network.OperationalStatus != OperationalStatus.Up) continue ; var properties = network.GetIPProperties(); if (properties.GatewayAddresses.Count == 0) continue ; foreach (var address in properties.UnicastAddresses) { if (address.Address.AddressFamily != AddressFamily.InterNetwork) continue ; if (IPAddress.IsLoopback(address.Address)) continue ; if (!address.IsDnsEligible) { if (mostSuitableIp == null ) mostSuitableIp = address; continue ; } // The best IP is the IP got from DHCP server if (address.PrefixOrigin != PrefixOrigin.Dhcp) { if (mostSuitableIp == null || !mostSuitableIp.IsDnsEligible) mostSuitableIp = address; continue ; } return address.Address.ToString(); } } return mostSuitableIp != null ? mostSuitableIp.Address.ToString() : "" ; }
