Use NETGetHostIP to retrieve the Internet Protocol (IP) address of a host computer, given its name.
You must include the following line at the beginning of your OmniMark program:
include "omnetutl.xin"
The IP address is returned in dotted decimal format (for example, "127.0.0.1").
If no host name is specified, NETGetHostIP returns the IP address of the local host. If NETGetHostIP fails to retrieve the IP address, it returns NETInvalidIP which is defined as "255.255.255.255".
