# IP address

{% hint style="info" %}
IP address automatic capture is only available for CTV channels. If you wish to discuss activating it for Site or Mobile channels please get in touch with your account manager.
{% endhint %}

For IP address, you have 2 options : 

Option 1 : Activate auto IP address capture for a CTV channel

Option 2 : Create dedicated registries then activate auto capture 

### Option #1

If you wish to have 2 dedicated registries for each CTV channel

1. Go to **Navigator > Settings >Channels**
2. Select an existing **CTV Channel** or create a new one 
3. In the IP addresses capture section, toggle "Active"
4. Save

This will automatically create dedicated registries to store IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. All captured IP addresses will then be stored in one of these two registries.

If you have multiple CTV channels don't forget to do this for each one.

### Option #2

If you wish to use the same 2 registries for all your CTV channels 

1. Create 2 devices registries **Navigator>Settings>Organisation>Device Registries**
   1. One of type `IP_V4_ADDRESS_ID`
   2. One of type `IP_V6_ADDRESS_ID`
2. Activate automatic IP capture on your CTV channel(s) : **Navigator > Settings >Channels**
3. Select an existing **CTV Channel** or create a new one 
4. In the IP addresses capture section, toggle "Active"
5. Check the "Use exisiting device registries" and select the 2 registries you created
6. Save
