Ops Setup

Keep track of your IP address.

Get Your Internet Protocol (IP) Address

  1. Review this walkthrough on how the ip command works{target: "_blank"}
  2. Use the ip a command in the Terminal to check your IP address.
  3. Identify your IPv4 address from the output of the ip a command and write it down/take note somewhere.
    • If you wrote down 127.0.0.1 as your IP address, that's not quite right. Re-read the link above and look a little closer.

If you're really having trouble identifying the IPv4 address from the output of ip a, trying running the hostname -I command.

Optional: Establish Remote Connection

At this point you should be able to use RDP to connect from your home computer to your lab computer, if you wish. Or feel free to continue working directly on your lab machine.

If you encounter trouble establishing a connection, just continue to the next step.
