how do i get the IP of my VM?

Question

I did a partial clone of my VM. It is red hat 64 bit.

How do I get the external IP of the new instance of the VM?

Logging in and running `ip address show` isn't sufficient? – cjc Dec 10 '12 at 20:07 — cjc, Dec 10 '12 at 20:07

You haven't really provided much information about your environment - your public facing IP should be the same as it was before and that is whatever IP is assigned to your gateway.

You can easily check this with www.whatismyip.com.

Most linux/unix flavors will respond to

/sbin/ifconfig -a

Most Windows flavors will respond to

ipconfig /all
