Looking for last IP used or primary IP

The IP field is useless in the column set or reporting as it lists multiple IPs including the 169 default.
what we need is a way to show the ip that was used when it reported or atleast the most used ip.

The following relevance can be used to return the IP leveraged by the Client to register with its Relay/parent:

Hi

I am applying this relevance ( registration address of client) but for some agents it throwing the error:
"Singular expression refers to nonexistent object"
Any idea? Would you help me please?

If you are using the FixletDebugger you may need to switch the mode to use the local BES Client to evaluate it since the Debugger never actually registers with a Relay.

Also, there’s a limit to the number of addresses that “registration address of client” will try to evaluate. I think that it’s 4, so if you have 5 addresses it may not return a result.

So, how do you even define a primary IP? In the network stack, there’s really no such thing as a “Primary IP”. To my mind, the “Primary IP” probably means the one that’s used by default to send traffic outside of your subnet. Generally, you should only have one default gateway, and only one interface with a default gateway defined, so you could try looking for that -

addresses of adapters whose (exists gateway lists of it) of network
