Capturing an IP Address

Rails

How do I capture an IP address and send it into a database field?
There is no DRY convention for this like a password_confirmation for
example right?

on your local machine it might give you the ip of your lan/intranet
(from your router). on your server you get the external one given to
you by your isp.
