The internal IP in Linux is the local IP address that is assigned to your device on the local network. It is used to interact and exchange data with other devices on the same network.
The internal IP address is different from the external one, which is the unique address of your router or modem that allows your device to connect to the Internet.
Recognizing the internal IP address in Linux can be useful for several reasons:
To find out the internal IP address in Linux, you can use the ifconfig or ip addr command.
