You can easily get the IP address of any container if you have the name or ID of the container. You can get the container names using the "Docker ps -a" command. This will list all the existing containers.
The IP command in Ubuntu is a well-known command for network handling. Starting from the introduction of IP to the detailed use of this command in Ubuntu, it can be used to perform several network-related tasks such as monitoring the network devices, adding/removing the IP address of interfaces.
To install ping command on your system, first of all, update system repositories using this command “$ sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade”, then install the “iputils-ping” package that comprises the ping command with the “$ sudo apt install iputils-ping” command.
You could use apt-file search to determine the command in which package. From my ubuntu16.04, it tells me to install iproute2, I think 1804 similar.
1. Get what package need to be installed:
$ apt-file search --regexp 'bin/ip$' iproute2: /bin/ip iproute2: /sbin/ip 2. Install the package:
$ apt install -y iproute2 ... 3. Verify the package is installed:
$ dpkg -l iproute2 ii iproute2 4.3.0-1ubuntu3 amd64 networking and traffic control tools If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
