Why would hostname -I report 3 IP addresses?

  • 772

Environment: Fresh install of CentOS 8, Digital Ocean Droplet

Question: Why would hostname -I report 3 IP addresses? Shouldn't it show 1 IPv4 and 1 IPv6 address?

My Output: (IP addresses changed)

149.50.50.1 10.10.10.1 2500:1111:1111:1111:1111:1111:1111

149.50.50.1 and 2500:1111:1111:1111:1111:1111:1111 are displayed in my DO control panel. I have no idea where 10.10.10.1 comes from.

ip ipv4

    third address i think serve for management by Digital Ocean panel or something. you can use:

    ip -c a

    to determine to what interface it binds. and

    nmtui

    for setup network, if you are sure that 10.10.10.1 not used for anything - remove it from interface.
