You can view the IP address for a network interface controller (NIC) by using the web console or the oc client. The QEMU guest agent displays additional information about the virtual machine’s secondary networks.

Prerequisites

  • Install the QEMU guest agent on the virtual machine.

Viewing the IP address of a virtual machine interface in the CLI

The network interface configuration is included in the oc describe vmi <vmi_name> command.

You can also view the IP address information by running ip addr on the virtual machine, or by running oc get vmi <vmi_name> -o yaml.

Procedure
  • Use the oc describe command to display the virtual machine interface configuration:

    $ oc describe vmi <vmi_name>
    Example output
