After trying many tricks.. finally I can get the IP address in IPV4 format.. Here is my code..
public String getLocalIpAddress() {
try {
for (Enumeration en = NetworkInterface
.getNetworkInterfaces(); en.hasMoreElements();) {
NetworkInterface intf = en.nextElement();
for (Enumeration enumIpAddr = intf
.getInetAddresses(); enumIpAddr.hasMoreElements();) {
InetAddress inetAddress = enumIpAddr.nextElement();
System.out.println("ip1--:" + inetAddress);
System.out.println("ip2--:" + inetAddress.getHostAddress());
// for getting IPV4 format
if (!inetAddress.isLoopbackAddress() && InetAddressUtils.isIPv4Address(ipv4 = inetAddress.getHostAddress())) {
String ip = inetAddress.getHostAddress().toString();
System.out.println("ip---::" + ip);
EditText tv = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.ipadd);
tv.setText(ip);
// return inetAddress.getHostAddress().toString();
return ip;
}
}
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.e("IP Address", ex.toString());
}
return null;
}
Added if condition as shown below
/**This shows IPV4 format IP address*/
if (!inetAddress.isLoopbackAddress() && InetAddressUtils.isIPv4Address(ipv4 = inetAddress.getHostAddress())){}
instead of this
/**This shows IPV6 format IP address*/
if (!inetAddress.isLoopbackAddress()){}
Many Thanks..

An alternative for checking if the address is a version 4 address is:
if (!inetAddress.isLoopbackAddress() && inetAddress instanceof Inet4Address)
