PowerShell - Finding IP Address

There are various ways to determine the IP address that is assigned to your machine. Here is a rather unusual approach that uses text operators to filter the information out of the results provided by ipconfig.exe.

PS> foreach($ip in (ipconfig) -like '*IPv4*') { ($ip -split ' : ')[-1]}
