Kohana accessing client ip

Question

I am using kohana 3.2, and i would like to acces client ip from request class, in documentation i can see public static string $client_ip which should contain client ip, now if i try to access it i like so:

Request::$client_ip;

I get: string(3) "::1" it makes no sense at all, what am i doing wrong, or maybe it's impossible to access it?

Why doesn't it make sense? You access your script locally, your IPv6 address is `::1` — Thorsten, Jul 19 '12 at 17:01
How to get client ip address in kohana 2.3.4? can any one tell me the code? — jeeva, Jan 05 '13 at 09:21
@jeeva I'm not sure about 2.3.4 but you can always just use `$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']` — Linas, Jan 05 '13 at 11:36
@Linas Thank you, i got the solution. In Kohana 2.3.4 we use $this->input->ip_address(); — jeeva, Jan 05 '13 at 11:50
