Getting the IP address of the current machine using Java

Question

I am trying to develop a system where there are different nodes that are run on different system or on different ports on the same system    Now all the nodes create a Socket with a target IP as the IP of a special node known as a bootstrapping node  The nodes then create their own ServerSocket and start listening for connections    The bootstrapping node maintains a list of Nodes and returns them on being queried   Now what I need is the node must register its IP to the bootstrapping node  I tried using cli getInetAddress   once the client connects to the ServerSocket of bootstrapping node but that didn t work    I need the client to register its PPP IP if available  Otherwise the LAN IP if available   Otherwise it must register 127 0 0 1 assuming its the same computer    Using the code   System out println Inet4Address getLocalHost   getHostAddress       or  System out println InetAddress getLocalHost   getHostAddress       My PPP Connection IP address is  117 204 44 192 but the above returns me 192 168 1 2  EDIT  I am using the following code   Enumeration e   NetworkInterface getNetworkInterfaces    while e hasMoreElements          NetworkInterface n    NetworkInterface  e nextElement        Enumeration ee   n getInetAddresses        while  ee hasMoreElements                  InetAddress i    InetAddress  ee nextElement            System out println i getHostAddress               I am able to get all the IP addresses associated all NetworkInterfaces  but how do I distinguish them  This is the output I am getting   127 0 0 1 192 168 1 2 192 168 56 1 117 204 44 19

This could be a bit tricky in the most general case.

On the face of it, InetAddress.getLocalHost() should give you the IP address of this host. The problem is that a host could have lots of network interfaces, and an interface could be bound to more than one IP address. And to top that, not all IP addresses will be reachable outside of your machine or your LAN. For example, they could be IP addresses for virtual network devices, private network IP addresses, and so on.

What this means is that the IP address returned by InetAddress.getLocalHost() might not be the right one to use.

How can you deal with this?

One approach is to use NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces() to get all of the known network interfaces on the host, and then iterate over each NI's addresses.
Another approach is to (somehow) get the externally advertized FQDN for the host, and use InetAddress.getByName() to look up the primary IP address. (But how do you get it, and how do you deal with a DNS-based load balancer?)
A variation of the previous is to get the preferred FQDN from a config file or a command line parameter.
Another variation is to get the preferred IP address from a config file or a command line parameter.

In summary, InetAddress.getLocalHost() will typically work, but you may need to provide an alternative method for the cases where your code is run in an environment with "complicated" networking.

I am able to get all the IP addresses associated all Network Interfaces, but how do i distinguish them?

Any address in the range 127.xxx.xxx.xxx is a "loopback" address. It is only visible to "this" host.
Any address in the range 192.168.xxx.xxx is a private (aka site local) IP address. These are reserved for use within an organization. The same applies to 10.xxx.xxx.xxx addresses, and 172.16.xxx.xxx through 172.31.xxx.xxx.
Addresses in the range 169.254.xxx.xxx are link local IP addresses. These are reserved for use on a single network segment.
Addresses in the range 224.xxx.xxx.xxx through 239.xxx.xxx.xxx are multicast addresses.
The address 255.255.255.255 is the broadcast address.
Anything else should be a valid public point-to-point IPv4 address.

In fact, the InetAddress API provides methods for testing for loopback, link local, site local, multicast and broadcast addresses. You can use these to sort out which of the IP addresses you get back is most appropriate.

Usually when i try to find my public IP Address like cmyip com or www iplocation net  i use this way    public static String myPublicIp            nslookup myip opendns com resolver1 opendns com       String ipAdressDns            try           String command    nslookup myip opendns com resolver1 opendns com           Process proc   Runtime getRuntime   exec command            BufferedReader stdInput   new BufferedReader new InputStreamReader proc getInputStream               String s          while   s   stdInput readLine       null                ipAdressDns     s     n                   catch  IOException e            e printStackTrace               return ipAdressDns

import java net DatagramSocket  import java net InetAddress   try final DatagramSocket socket   new DatagramSocket       socket connect InetAddress getByName  8 8 8 8    10002     ip   socket getLocalAddress   getHostAddress        This way works well when there are multiple network interfaces  It always returns the preferred outbound IP  The destination 8 8 8 8 is not needed to be reachable    Connect on a UDP socket has the following effect  it sets the destination for Send Recv  discards all packets from other addresses  and - which is what we use - transfers the socket into  connected  state  settings its appropriate fields  This includes checking the existence of the route to the destination according to the system s routing table and setting the local endpoint accordingly  The last part seems to be undocumented officially but it looks like an integral trait of Berkeley sockets API  a side effect of UDP  connected  state  that works reliably in both Windows and Linux across versions and distributions    So  this method will give the local address that would be used to connect to the specified remote host  There is no real connection established  hence the specified remote ip can be unreachable   Edit   As  macomgil says  for MacOS you can do this   Socket socket   new Socket    socket connect new InetSocketAddress  google com   80    System out println socket getLocalAddress

Since my system  like so many other systems  had various network interfaces InetAddress getLocalHost   or Inet4Address getLocalHost   simply returned one that I did not desire  Therefore I had to use this naive approach   InetAddress   allAddresses   Inet4Address getAllByName  YourComputerHostName            InetAddress desiredAddress            In order to find the desired Ip to be routed by other modules  WiFi adapter          for  InetAddress address                   allAddresses                if  address getHostAddress   startsWith  192 168 2                      desiredAddress   address                             Use the desired address for whatever purpose    Just be careful that in this approach I already knew that my desired IP address is in 192 168 2 subnet

When you are looking for your  quot local quot  address  you should note that each machine has not only a single network interface  and each interface could has its own local address  Which means your machine is always owning several  quot local quot  addresses  Different  quot local quot  addresses will be automatically chosen to use when you are connecting to different endpoints  For example  when you connect to google com  you are using an  quot outside quot  local address  but when you connect to your localhost  your local address is always localhost itself  because localhost is just a loopback  Below is showing how to find out your local address when you are communicating with google com  Socket socket   new Socket    socket connect new InetSocketAddress  quot google com quot   80    System out println socket getLocalAddress     socket close

This gets the IP address of your network if your machine is part of a network  try       System out println InetAddress getLocalHost   getHostAddress       catch  UnknownHostException e        e printStackTrace

User · Answer

You can use java s InetAddress class for this purpose   InetAddress IP InetAddress getLocalHost    System out println  IP of my system is      IP getHostAddress       Output for my system   IP of my system is    10 100 98 228  getHostAddress   returns      Returns the IP address string in textual presentation    OR you can also do   InetAddress IP InetAddress getLocalHost    System out println IP toString       Output   IP of my system is    RanRag-PC 10 100 98 228
