Getting client IP-address

Former Member — Tue, 22 Apr 2014 10:18:55 GMT

Dear Experts,

We have built a RFC function module with web service enabled, we are transferring data from RFC to portal through EAI.

Is it possible to capture IP address of the user through when he/she logs on to the portal.

We wanted to give access to the users based on specific ip addresses.

Is this can be achieved pro-grammatically through ABAP ?

Thanks and Regards,

Kartheek.

Thanks for the reply, but through this we get system IP address not the portal IP address or site IP address.

Thanks,

Kartheek.

you asked for:

"Is it possible to capture IP address of the user through when he/she logs on to the portal"

So via the method you get the frontend IP address of the user which is logged-in.

You want to give access to users based on the IP address of the server? I do not understand your requirement

client = client

Make the call

client->send( ).

Receivingthe Response Object

call method client->receive

exceptions

http_communication_failure = 1

http_invalid_state = 2

http_processing_failed = 3

others = 4.

ip_address = client->response->get_header_field( name = '~remote_addr' ).
