IP Lookup Tool

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique identifier assigned to every device connected to the internet or a network. It acts like a digital address, allowing data to be routed between devices correctly.

There are two main types of IP addresses:

• IPv4: Most common (e.g. 192.168.0.1)
• IPv6: Newer and more scalable (e.g. 2001:0db8::1)

An IP lookup allows you to find information about an IP address, including its geographical location, internet service provider (ISP), hostname, and more. This can help with security auditing, traffic analysis, and understanding where your site’s visitors are coming from.

IP geolocation estimates a device's physical location based on its IP address. This information is gathered from:

• Regional internet registries (RIRs)
• ISP metadata and network blocks
• Public routing tables and latency measurements

While generally accurate at the city or region level, it's not precise enough to find a home address. For privacy reasons, exact user locations are not exposed through IP alone.

• 🌍 Location Detection: Find where a visitor or user is connecting from
• 🛡️ Security: Investigate suspicious login attempts or malicious bots
• 📦 Debugging: Identify routing or network issues by ISP or region
• 📊 Analytics: Enrich traffic data with geographic metadata
