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?

Answer 1

You access your script locally, your IPv6 address is ::1
