Regarding the issue of msg.socketIp in dashboard 2.0

Why are the msg.socketIp outputs from the UI control node and event node all 'undefined'?

You should find them in _client property, use a debug node set to complete message object to see all properties. There is also a setting in the dashboard sidebar for this also Getting Started | Node-RED Dashboard 2.0 & Getting Started | Node-RED Dashboard 2.0.
Else provide an example flow demonstrating your issue.

In fact _client does not appear to be there.

Thank you for your guidance. It is indeed because I did not notice '_cient'.

Oh, I had forgotten about the setting for client data, I see it now too.
