Use this command:
$ ifconfig -a
Your output will be like this:
lo0: flags=849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 8232
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
hme0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.14.1.20 netmask fffffc00 broadcast 10.14.1.255
You will have either a le0, hme0, qfe0...the inet is the IP address.
Check the man page on ifconfig
