Display your current IP address and location information.
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network. It serves two main functions: identifying the host or network interface, and providing the location of the host in the network.
IPv4: The original internet protocol that uses 32-bit addresses (e.g., 192.168.1.1). With approximately 4.3 billion possible addresses, IPv4 has largely been exhausted.
IPv6: The newer protocol using 128-bit addresses (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334). IPv6 provides an almost limitless number of unique addresses.
Public IP: Assigned by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and visible to the internet. This is what websites see when you connect.
Private IP: Used within local networks (like your home or office) and not directly accessible from the internet. Common ranges include 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, and 172.16.x.x.
Knowing your public IP can help troubleshoot network issues, verify VPN functionality, check for geolocation accuracy, or confirm proper server configurations.
