The example here show you how to get an IP or host address using the java.net.InetAddress class. To get an instance of InetAddress we call a static method of this class, the method is getLocalHost(), which return the local host address. Next, to get the IP address we can call the getHostAddress() method.

package org.kodejava.example.net;

import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;

public class LocalHostIpAddress {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            InetAddress address = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
            String ip = address.getHostAddress();

            System.out.println("IP Address = " + ip);
        } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

The result of this code snippet:

IP Address = 192.168.0.102
