Get external IP of each adapter

[afliw]

Hello everyone!

I've been searching and still can't find an answer to do this.

Scenario:

I've three networks adapters, each with a different connection to internet (each with a different external [public] IP).

Target:

Get each external IP for every adapter.

 

I can get each external IP running _GetIP()  from <Inet.au3> several times, but they're returned randomly. I have to know which adapter has each IP.

Ideas?

Thanks in advanced.

Regards!

just a wild guess
you could disable all 3 cards
then enable one at a time and getip() for each
at end reenable all 3 cards

this 2 links could be of interest

>link1

>link2

>this is interesting too

good luck

edit:

remembered just now >also this link

Thanks for the answer Chimp.

Disabling and re-enabling the adapters is not acceptable for me. Just feel uncomfortable and one of the lines is a PPPoE, and dynamic address, so each team I disable, it's gonna get a different IP.

The STUN protocol looks interesting, but seems like a bit too much for such a simple task, and it doesn't let me chose the adapter to query.

The last link you gave it's useful for another task I have in mind, so, thanks again for that. =)

I've found a workaround although, using an external application named cURL, that with a simple CMD line I can get what I wanted.

Yet again, thank you very much for your help!

Best regards!

ok, good,

....it sounds interesting, could you show that cmd line?

thanks

Sure.

I downloaded cURL's bin form this website: http://www.confusedbycode.com/curl/

And the CMD line I'm using is like this: 

curl -P 192.168.15.107 ifconfig.me/ip

OR

curl --interface 192.168.15.107 ifconfig.me/ip

Where ifconfig.me/ip is a service that returns only a string with your external IP. [You have other data you can get from that site (see http://ifconfig.me on browser for more), and other servers that offers similar services.]

192.168.15.107 is the local IP address of the adapter I want to get the external IP.

Those two flags (--interface and -P) do the same thing, indicate cURL trough which adapter you want to make the query from.

 

So the rest is easy, inlcude cURL on your script folder, do a Run() on AutoIt, get the stdout, and show on a floating window or something. ^^

Hope it helps somebody looking for the same.

Thanks again!

thank you afliw, got it

MsgBox(0, "External IP", "the extarnal IP of the card with IP address " & @IPAddress1 & " is " & _GetExternalIP(@IPAddress1))

Func _GetExternalIP($sCard)
    Local $sOutput, $hPid = Run("CURL.EXE --interface " & $sCard & " ifconfig.me/ip", "", @SW_HIDE, 2)
    Do
        $sOutput &= StdoutRead($hPid)
    Until @error
    Return ($sOutput)
EndFunc   ;==>_GetExternalIP
