Private Function IPAddress() As String
           Dim strIP As String = ""
           Dim LocalHostName As String
           Try
               LocalHostName = Dns.GetHostName()  //Here u will get ur system Name
               Dim ipEnter As IPHostEntry = Dns.GetHostEntry(LocalHostName)
               Dim IpAdd() As IPAddress = ipEnter.AddressList
               strIP = IpAdd(0).ToString()
               Return strIP  //It will return ipaddress of ur system
           Catch ex As Exception
               Throw New Exception(ex.Message)
