Hello Linux folks, let's see how to find your system's IP address in Linux command line in
today's video. Here we go. There are several ways to do that. My favorite is the IP command. If you
just type IP address, it will show you the interfaces and you can see the IP address
beside this INET line. The INET 6 gives you the IP version 6. IP address command has some
shortcuts as well. IPA or IPADDR both will give you the exact same result as IP address because
they are the same command. I prefer IP address because that's easy to remember. IP is not the
only command you can use to find the IP address of your system. Another good command is hostname
with minus I option. This will give you just the IP address of your system, nothing else. No
interfaces information, nothing else. And there's another way to get your IP and that is using the
network manager. The network manager has a command line version called NMCLI and you can use it to
the device interface and in that output you will find the gateway information here and the version
4 of IP address. Keep in mind that this information, this IP address is of your local subnetwork. This
is the private IP address, not the IP address of your router which is the public IP address. That's
all. That's super quick way of finding the IP address of your Linux system in the command line
