I need to get public IPv4 address on current EC2 or Lightsail VM Linux/Unix instance. How do I find Public IP address AWS EC2 or Lightsail VM?

Please give that terminal theme/color scheme,I love it!

That is just an image edited in GIMP. Not terminal theme.

Since you seem to have the dns name (as you ssh into the machine), and this is a simple non load balance setup; why not just ping the dns name? That will show you the resolved ip address.

okay can i have the image :smiley:

Does this help?

Yes, thank you :slight_smile:
