Read an Interface's IP Address

EasyLinux+ Exam Prep10-15 min
The brief

You need the IPv4 address bound to one interface. /root/net/task.txt names the interface (it differs per session), and a capture of ip addr show is saved at /root/net/ipaddr.txt. Read it and record THAT interface's IPv4 address (without the /prefix) to /root/answers/iface_ip.txt. The capture also lists loopback, other NICs and docker0.

What you'll do
  • Record the named interface's IPv4 address to /root/answers/iface_ip.txt
