I would comment this but I cant. We need more information. What language are you programming with. What have you tried.

Edit: Here is what you are looking for. This answer was taken from Find the IP address of the client in an SSH session

Please do a more through search for your problem before posting a question

Check if there is an environment variable called:

$SSH_CLIENT

OR

$SSH_CONNECTION

(or any other environment variables) which gets set when the user logs in. Then process it using the user login script.

Extract the IP:

$ echo $SSH_CLIENT | awk '{ print $1}'
1.2.3.4
$ echo $SSH_CONNECTION | awk '{print $1}'
1.2.3.4

Do you want the server to send you back the IP address of the client or do you want to know the address of the server? – chillinOutMaxin Oct 16 '18 at 00:56
