function ip_address in Drupal 7

Same name and namespace in other branches
  1. 6 includes/bootstrap.inc \ip_address()

Returns the IP address of the client machine.

If Drupal is behind a reverse proxy, we use the X-Forwarded-For header instead of $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], which would be the IP address of the proxy server, and not the client's. The actual header name can be configured by the reverse_proxy_header variable.

Return value

IP address of client machine, adjusted for reverse proxy and/or cluster environments.
