To determine an IP address:

  1. On the workstation for which you want to determine the IP address, open a Linux terminal window.

  2. Type in the following command and press Enter (do not type the $ prompt symbol):

    3. $ /sbin/ifconfig eth0

  3. Close the Terminal Window.

Note The current IP Address is the four-field, period separated number after Inet addr: in the second line of output (e.g., 172.20.20.11).
