  • What do you mean by correct IP, then ? – BlitZ Feb 14 '14 at 08:22

I use the most reliable function I've found long ago

function getRealIpAddr() {
    if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']))   //check ip from share internet
    {
      $ip=$_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'];
    }
    elseif (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']))   //to check ip is pass from proxy
    {
      $ip=$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
    }
    else
    {
      $ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    }
    return $ip;
}

  • HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR is giving my own ip on proxy and REMOTE_ADDR is giving proxy's ip, Sometimes it interchanging. How this can be solved? – Shambhulal Verma Feb 14 '14 at 08:30
