show ip alias

Home » CCIE Certification » CCIE Lab Training

If you want to quickly see what ip addresses you have configured on your router you can use the command show ip alias

This will give you a much cleaner output than sh ip int brief or sh ip int brief ex unass

Using the command sh ip alias on a router you can see the clean output showing connected interfaces

R1#sh ip alias
Address Type             IP Address      Port
Interface                10.1.1.1
Interface                192.168.1.2
Interface                192.168.2.2
Interface                192.168.3.2
Interface                192.168.4.2 

Compare this to the output of sh ip int brief

R1#sh ip int brief
Interface                  IP-Address      OK? Method Status                Protocol
Ethernet0/0                192.168.1.2    YES TFTP   up                    up
Ethernet0/1                192.168.2.2    YES TFTP   up                    up
Ethernet0/2                192.168.3.2   YES TFTP   up                    up
Ethernet0/3                192.168.4.2   YES TFTP   up                    up
Loopback0                  10.1.1.1        YES TFTP   up                    up    

I have started to use this command now more than sh ip int brief as it is less characters to type! sh ip al is the least you can get away with.
