    Adobe Analytics will track the IP of the image request sender. If you are sending the image requests (pixels) from a single server (apparently that will have only one IP), it will track the IP of that proxy/server and not the IP of the website visitors. If you do want to track the IPs of your visitors, you might want to send them with a prop/evar. Note that there is a threshold on the number of unique values (IPs for this scenario) a variable can record.

    Hope that helps.

    Hello--

    We try to send the pixel tracking with the same IP address to Adobe Serveur.  (confidentially)

    We track some website and for all visitor on all website, Adobe Serveur catch only 1 IP Address (the IP of the Proxy) not the true IP of the visitor.
