Determine IP assigned to client on Linux client

Post by Artemus » Tue May 08, 2012 10:40 pm

Is it possible to determine the IP address that has been assigned to client on the client itself (a Linux client in this case)? My server-bridge line from server.conf is

server-bridge 10.25.25.1 255.255.255.0 10.25.25.105 10.25.25.200

Sorry if this is a naive question (or in the wrong sub-forum), but I'm brand new at OpenVPN.

It shows up on device tap2: ip is 10.25.25.105. (Rather obvious now that I think about it!)

Thanks for the help!
