how to display my IP addresses "ONLY"

ALInux · 12-11-2005, 06:36 AM

Hi guys I wondered if there is a way to "grep" the output of the ipconfig -a command so that only the ip addresses are shown........or even better the name of the nic and the ip address together.
Actually, Ive seen such a thread in this forum, but I could not find it again .....

Thanks for the help

/sbin/ifconfig -a | grep "inet add" | cut -f2 -d\: | cut -f1 -d" "
Solves the first problem..........what about the second case ?

Hi,

Don't know if you actually need the -a option with ifconfig (-a also shows dummy0, which has no ip).

If not:

ifconfig | awk '/^[a-z]/ { printf("%s", $1) } /inet add/ { print $2 }' | sed 's/addr:/ /'

Hope this helps.

PS: If -a must be used and device is called dummy0:

ifconfig -a | awk '/^[a-z]/ { printf("%s", $1) } /inet add/ { print $2 }' | sed -e 's/dummy0/dummy0\n/' -e 's/addr:/ /'
