Hello,

For Linux boxes I use this one-liner:

Quote:

$ IP=`/sbin/ifconfig eth1 | grep "inet addr" | cut -d ":" -f 2 | cut -d " " -f 1`
$ echo $IP
192.168.0.210

You can try also parsing the output of the command "ip a l", perhaps it's more efficient...

Quote:

$ ip a l eth1
6: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
link/ether 00:05:1c:03:26:36 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.0.210/24 brd 192.168.0.255 scope global eth1

Regards,
