IP instead of localhost in URI

Question

I am currently trying to create a valid link to a function of my API using this LOC:

Uri locationHeader = new Uri(Url.Link("GetUserById", new { id = user.Id }));

This returns the following:

http://localhost:53800/..../user/821105b1

However, as the link should be accessible from the network, I would need something like the following:

http://192.168.0.12:53800/..../user/821105b1

How can I get this result instead of the one with the localhost??

Thanks in advance!

Change your project's Web setting URL to http://192.168.0.12:53800 might help. — Lex Li, Apr 18 '16 at 01:54

Calling local libraries will only give you the local IP. You can call an external API like whatismyip or checkip to get the external IP. See here...https://stackoverflow.com/a/7838551

I just need the LAN-internal ip, no external one. There is no local library that can manage that? – Michael Heribert Apr 17 '16 at 15:04
