Answer 1

Not sure how to get the IP address specifically, but the location object provides part of the answer.

e.g. these variables might be helpful:

• self.location.host - Sets or retrieves the hostname and port number of the location
• self.location.hostname - Sets or retrieves the host name part of the location or URL.
