IP address of browser

$Web_IPAddr returns the IP address of the browser issuing the request.

%string = $Web_IPAddr

%string might contain an IP address specified in either:

IPV4 standard 32-bit "dotted-decimal" form: for example, 198.242.244.97.
IPV6 standard (RFC 5952) 128-bit form: for example, 2011:0ab4:15a1::4a0e:0280:5274
The IPV6 form is supported as of version 7.7 of Model 204.

The address format is IPV4 unless the TCPTYPE parameter is explicitly set to an IPV6 value.

%string is a null string if the thread is not a Janus Web Server thread.
