How could I know the Ip address of the de10-nano? #27

I just downloaded the Debian image, but I don't know how to get the Ip address of the de10-nano.

I only ever tried using a USB-serial connection, with a USB-A to mini-B cable from the PC, and TeraTerm (PuTTY would also work). That should give you a command prompt and let you type commands... which personally, I feel is good enough, but you could use that temporarily to try to find the IP address.

Debian has either

ip a

or

ifconfig

depending on the version. An older version is more likely to have ifconfig, apparently:

In TeraTerm or similar, configure the serial port at 115,200 baud, 8N1, with no flow control.

You can even use that to transfer files, with the Zmodem protocol, if you install lrsz on the DE10-nano, from a .deb package. I have notes on doing that, somewhere. Let me know if you want more detail.
