Partner would like an additional field added to the General tab of the guest machine on the Host page that displays the local IP address of the machine (in addition to the current Network IP address that pulls from the inbound traffic).

Being able to conveniently see and search by IP could be a massive time saver. There have been more than a few times were I may only know the IP for various reasons such as getting an activity alert from a firewall. Getting into a machine like that as quick as possible to mitigate or shutdown can be key. Considering cryptowall threats etc. Seconds/minutes count.
To keep the UI clean it could be on by default, or even better maybe having a checkbox in admin tab to turn it on/off.
How would this feature work? You can have multiple IP's assigned to one network adapter, as well as different IP addresses for IPv4 and IPv6. You can also have multiple adapters (Ethernet, Wireless, VPN adapter, etc) each with their one or more IP addresses. Which IP would ScreenConnect display?
This solution could have an IPv4 and IPv6 field in the general info section for the single IP'd machines (single IP is move common). Machines with multiple IPv4/v6 addresses could show the word of "multiple" on the IPv4/v6 spaces and then show a full listing of the addresses when hovered over with a mouse. I wouldn't care if it showed all the IP addresses in th IPv4/v6 sections myself. I want this feature so that I can type a LAN IP into the screenconnect search box and find PCs that use that specific IP address.
I don't think it would be much of a challenge for SC to list out multiple interface IP addresses. This feature could be disabled by default so as to not clutter SC for those that are not interested.
I would love to be able to search a list of computers for a particular IP address. There are a bunch of other reasons why the LAN side IP would be of help in my daily work.
In a Corp Environment, WAN IP is not needed info for us, but I know it is for others. However, I would keep it and ad LAN IP, that's a must.

I agree that lately, even Desktop PCs are coming with wired and wireless NICs. But it is very weird more than 2. I think it should show whichever are ACTIVE, means that there is not 169.x.x.x. or disconnected, of course. Even shows up 2 ACTIVE (primary & secondary) IPs in a column wouldn't bother SC General Tab at all. However it is, we definitely need it. I really don't bother for IPv6 for now until this get to be a MUST, globally speaking.
I would really like this as well. I can't recall the number of times I've switched to the "commands" tab to run "ipconfig" in search of the LAN IP.
