If my real IP address is 175.126.37.238 and this address should be input above, then 0xee257eaf is correct? Internet site hex to ip
https://www.browserling.com/tools/hex-to-ip shows this 0xee257eaf is 238.37.126.175
This is due to Endianness (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endianness).
When communicating via a network, you don't know how your counterparty is 'reading' the values.
Most significant bit at the most left or most right position?
Big-endian (most significant byte has the lowest address [left-to-right reading]) is also referred to network byte order.
Depending on the system you are using your pc might use big- or low- endian format. But when communicating via network, always big endian is used (IPv4/6, TCP/UDP).
Thats the reason for the
mysterious reverse order.
