There are several ways to view the IP address of Ubuntu.

  1. Use the command line tool: open the terminal and enter the following command:
ifconfig

Locate the section in the output that pertains to the network connection, which includes the IP address.

  1. From the network settings interface, click on the network icon in the top right corner and select “Network settings.” In the window that opens, choose the network connection you are using and check the IP address in the “IPv4 address” field.
  2. Use network management tools (only applicable to specific versions of Ubuntu): In the terminal, input the following command to install network management tools (if they are not already installed):
sudo apt-get install network-manager

Then enter the following command to start the network management tool:

nm-connection-editor

In the open window, choose the network connection you are using and view the IP address in the “IPv4 Address” field.

You can easily check Ubuntu’s IP address using any method.
