    Hello All, I am trying to find out what the current IP Address is on my computer. I open a Shell,
    I type ShowInterface eth0. The response I get is:
    Tags:
    Device: DEV: Networks/sungem_eth.device
    Unit: 0
    DoOnline: TRUE
    useDHCP: TRUE

    And that is all, the expample under shell commands show the IP Address, the Gateway Address and The Gateway
    Host address being displayed. But on my system it is not displayed. Very Frustrating.
    Thank you, Brad Hansen

    Yeah, the ShowInterface command shows IP addresses only if you have configured static addresses, it doesn't show them for DHCP addresses.
