Find IP address and the corresponding interface in a Linux system

[Dieselboy]

Doing more with systems that do routing as well as openwrt. Sometimes they have lot of IP addresses. Wanted to match the interface with the IP. Tried to do this myself, which worked but not really:

Code Select Expand

ip addr | grep [0-9.+]\.[0-9.+]\.[0-9.+]\.[0-9.+]

Then found this which works a treat:

Code Select Expand


ip addr | grep -E "([0-9]{1,3}[\.]){3}[0-9]{1,3}"

Taken from https://www.shellhacks.com/regex-find-ip-addresses-file-grep/

I was trying to find if anyone is logged in to Openstack. I came back here to grab the IP address grep and made this:

Code Select Expand

ss -an | grep ESTAB | grep -vE '192.168.17.|192.168.18.|127.0.0' | grep -E "([0-9]{1,3}[\.]){3}[0-9]{1,3}"

ss -an shows the connections
grep -v is inverse and E is extended. This means that '192.168.17.|192.168.18.|127.0.0' is filtering out lines with these (I dont care about connections to 127.0.0.1 for example)

The last section is there to just show me the ip addresses. I was getting "/var/something" data returned with the ss -an.
