IP Addresses

About this report

Lists IP Addresses and which students used them. Can filter to identify suspicious behavior, e.g. the same IP used by multiple students.

This report pairs well with a Custom Detail Report to further research users who have shared IP Addresses. With this report, pay close attention to foreign IP addresses and run a Custom Detail Report looking for IP conflicts. IP addresses can be filtered in or out to get a certain city, state/region or country.
