To check the IP address of Ubuntu, you can use the following methods:

  1. To use the command line, open the terminal and type in the ifconfig command, then press enter. In the output, locate the interface related to the network connection, like eth0 or wlan0. The interface’s IP address will be displayed under the inet addr or inet field.
  2. Utilize network management tools: In the Ubuntu desktop environment, there are various tools available that allow for easy viewing of IP addresses. For instance, by clicking on the network connection icon at the top right, selecting “Connection Information” or “Network Settings,” you can see the current IP address in the window that appears.
  3. View in Network Settings: In the Ubuntu desktop environment, you can open the “Settings” application, then choose the “Network” or “Wi-Fi” tab to see the IP address in the current connection settings.

No matter which method you use, you will be able to find the IP address of Ubuntu.
