Getting my own ip address in slack

Hello,

I just wanted to know how to pull up my own ip address in slack. I want to try something with telnet and want to pull it up to try it. Thanks in advance for any help.

Run 'ifconfig'. You'll get something like this:

Code:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX  
          inet addr:192.168.1.3  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:21005 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:22252 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:10 txqueuelen:100 
          RX bytes:10028284 (9.5 Mb)  TX bytes:7504228 (7.1 Mb)
          Interrupt:11 Base address:0xe800 

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:44 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:44 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:2560 (2.5 Kb)  TX bytes:2560 (2.5 Kb)

The IP address is in bold.
