Your IP (Internet Protocol) address is a number that identifies your network card on the local network. It will often be required for work that requires network access.
To find it in Windows:
- Click "Start", then "Run" (or press Windowskey+R)
- In the dialog box, type "cmd" and hit enter
- A black window will appear. Type "ipconfig /all" and hit enter
- The IP address appears as a number of the form 137.215.xxx.xxx (on campus)
To find it in Linux: As root, run ifconfig from a terminal (note the difference -- "f" instead of "p").
