Hey there,
I think you're asking how to find your IP address (Basic Service Set Identifier), but I'm sorry if I'm wrong here
The main commands that I use are 'ifconfig' and 'ip':
Code:
# ifconfig | grep 'inet addr:'
inet addr:X.X.X.X Bcast:X.X.X.X Mask:255.255.255.0
inet addr:X.X.X.X Bcast:X.X.X.X Mask:255.255.192.0
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
# ip addr show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
inet6 ::1/128 scope host
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
link/ether *YOUR MAC ADDR IS HERE* brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet *IP ADDRESS IS HERE* brd x.x.x.x scope global eth0
inet6 *IPv6 IS HERE* scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 xxxx::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
link/ether *MAC ADDR* brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet *IP ADDR* brd 10.183.191.255 scope global eth1
inet6 *IPv6 ADDR* scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
