address
The IP address of the local ICE candidate.
Description
String
The IP address of the local ICE candidate. May be an IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or empty string if the address has been redacted (e.g., mDNS hostname used for privacy). This is the address the local endpoint uses for connectivity checks.
Defined in the W3C WebRTC Statistics specification.

Notes
- For privacy, browsers may replace the actual IP address with an mDNS hostname (e.g., a UUID-based .local address). In that case, this field may be empty or contain the mDNS name
- The actual address is only visible when the candidate is of type "relay" (TURN) or when the application has been granted appropriate permissions
