REMOTE_ADDR and Windows Vista

Hi Luis,

Could you please clarify the issue first, so we can assist on performing
some tests on this.

Do you mean if connecting to the IIS server(IIS6.0 or other version?) from
a Vista client with IPv6 enabled, you get the result: "::1" ? Or just as
Bernard mentioned, the result is by accessing local IIS 7.0 on the Vista
machine?

Thanks and have a nice day.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang

Dear WenJun and Bernard,

Thank you for your replies.

I am running locallly on WinVista. When I run the Web Service on Win Vista
and the client (consumer) on another computer the returned value is in the
IPv6 format. Any other way (function or anything - conversion from IPv6 to
IPv4 ?) so that the returned value is in the IPv4 format (eg: 192.168.0.1)
without disable IPv6 ?

Best Regards,
Luis F.

Well what's the url you request? base on the return value. it looks like you
are querying locally.
hence ::1 returned. Try request from a remote machine, what you get?

Consider this -- suppose your server is IPv6 only. How do you expect
to even get an IPv4 return value?

Thus, IIS does the reasonable thing of "return the IP in whatever
interface the client used to reach it".

If you want to always convert (keeping in mind my caveat mentioned
earlier) then you should do the DNS lookup yourself (GetNameInfoW).

In other words, if you want the return value in IPv4 format, only
allow IPv4. If you allow IPv6 into the mix, then you need to accept
the fact that you may not be able to get an IPv4 equivalent IP or it
takes a great cost (i.e. DNS lookup) to do so.

I do not fully understand why you need to convert or even correlate
IPs at request time. If it's for log files you can handle that via
post-processing, and if it is for Authorization, don't do it -- it is
not a good ide.

Hi Luis,

Actually the behavior hasn't been changed since Windows 2003 IIS6.0 with
IPv6 enabled. See a former test below:

I created a simple paged named foo.aspx which contained the following code
and put it on my Win2K3 server with IPv6 enabled which shows what the
addresses can look like. ("::1" is basically a shortcut that means the
local machine. It isn't an error.)

<%
Response.Write("LOCAL_ADDR = ");
Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables["LOCAL_ADDR"]);

Response.Write("<br>");

Response.Write("REMOTE_ADDR = ");
Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"]);
%>

When I hit this page via http://localhost/UsrTechSmokeTest/foo.aspx I get
the following results:

LOCAL_ADDR = ::1
REMOTE_ADDR = ::1

When I hit this page via http://johnbea00/UsrTechSmokeTest/foo.aspx from
johnbea00 I get the following results:

LOCAL_ADDR = fe80::201:3fffebc:9750%4
REMOTE_ADDR=fe80::201:3fffebc:9750%4

When I hit this page via http://johnbea00/UsrTechSmokeTest/foo.aspx from
johnbea02 (an XP machine without IPv6 enabled) I get the following results:

LOCAL_ADDR = 157.55.41.84
REMOTE_ADDR = 157.55.41.17


Please update here if you have any further question on this.

Have a nice weekend.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang
