Answer 1

function get_client_ip()
{
    foreach (array(
                'HTTP_CLIENT_IP',
                'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR',
                'HTTP_X_FORWARDED',
                'HTTP_X_CLUSTER_CLIENT_IP',
                'HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR',
                'HTTP_FORWARDED',
                'REMOTE_ADDR') as $key) {
        if (array_key_exists($key, $_SERVER)) {
            foreach (explode(',', $_SERVER[$key]) as $ip) {
                $ip = trim($ip);
                if ((bool) filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP,
                                FILTER_FLAG_IPV4 |
                                FILTER_FLAG_NO_PRIV_RANGE |
                                FILTER_FLAG_NO_RES_RANGE)) {
                    return $ip;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return null;
}

Or the compressed version:

function get_ip() {
    foreach (array('HTTP_CLIENT_IP', 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR', 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED', 'HTTP_X_CLUSTER_CLIENT_IP', 'HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR', 'HTTP_FORWARDED', 'REMOTE_ADDR') as $key) {
        if (array_key_exists($key, $_SERVER) === true) {
            foreach (array_map('trim', explode(',', $_SERVER[$key])) as $ip) {
                if (filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_NO_PRIV_RANGE | FILTER_FLAG_NO_RES_RANGE) !== false) {
                    return $ip;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
