IP Address Identifier

IP Address Identifier is a small-sized tool with a self-explanatory name, as its shows you network information, namely the local host name, IP address and port number. It mainly targets power users, such as network administrators who are looking for this quick info.

The installation procedure is quick and uneventful, without demanding special attention from the user. When it's done, you can check out the simple interface represented from a small window with three buttons: for getting IP connection, to an About panel, and for exiting the tool.

In order to retrieve IP information, you must enter your mail server name or IP address. Unfortunately, IP Address Identifier is not capable of finding out the local host name, IP address and port number on its own, and this the biggest drawback of the tool. It does not provide options for copying the information to the Clipboard, printing it, or exporting it to a plain text document.

As it would be expected from such a feature-limited utility, IP Address Identifier is very light on the system resources, running on very low CPU and RAM. It has a good response time. No error dialogs have been shown in our tests, and the tool did not hang or crash. Unfortunately, IP Address Identifier has not been updated for a long time, so it does not work properly on newer OS platforms.
