GetV4: Self-Hosted Check IP Service

This will allow you to obtain your WAN IPv4 address from pfSense in a manner similar to most Check IP webpages. It's output is simply just the IP address with no additional text. It will only return your machine's IPv4 and is not a public check IP service.

This is the same as the version included in HEDyn.

It is not strictly for pfSense and will work on any machine with a public v4 and php.

Installation

• Modify getv4.sh with the interface name of your WAN device.
• Modify getv4.php with the path to getv4.sh
• Load getv4.php in your browser.

In pfSense installations, this directory is /usr/local/www
