Is the better option on a Open SuSE Box
Print the IP address and the Mac address in the same line Show Sample Output
not shown ifconfig error
parses the output of ifconfig to show only the configured ip address (in this case from interface eth0). the regexp is quick'n'dirty im sure it can be done in a better way. --> this alias does not show your "internet ip" when you're in a nat-environment Show Sample Output
Simple MAC adrress, thanks to ifconfig.
If you are interested in interfaces other than eth0 you will need to change eth0 to your interface name. You could use this mammoth to nab the ip4 addresses of all your interfaces perl -e '@_=`ifconfig -a`; sort(@_); foreach(@_) { /(inet addr\:)(\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+ )/; $_=$2; @uniq=grep($_ ne $prev && (($prev) = $_), @_);} print join "\n",@uniq,"\n"; ' it seems silly to have all this code when the following will work fine ifconfig -a | grep "inet " | awk -F":" ' { print $2 } ' | cut -d " " -f1 Show Sample Output
This also works on non-Linux machines. If you have GNU sed you can do it more elegantly:
ifconfig | sed -n 's/^\s*inet \(addr:\)\?\([^\s]*\) .*/\2/;T;/^127\./d;p'
Why use grep and awk?
more variety
Returns the IP, broadcast, and subnet mask of your interfaces absent any other extraneous info. I know it's a bit lame, but I've created an alias for this when I *quickly* want to know what a system's IP is. Small amounts of time add up :) Show Sample Output
Thx Mass1 for the sharing
Gives the DNS listed IP for the host you're on... or replace `hostname` with any other host Show Sample Output
On wired connections set 'eth0' instead of 'wlan0'
get desired info from machine and pipe it txt file. Show Sample Output
This is what we use. You can grep -v 127.0.0.1 if you wish.
