Can't get the correct IP Address

[pan0k]

I am testing to see if I can get the IP address for my system which is 192.168.1.177 or .219 to be on the glances view, but I keep getting 172.20.0.1 which is one of my IP address for a docker container. Originally I thought glances get the information from a managed network interfaces so I "unmanaged" all my docker network interface but I still get the 172 ip address. Any suggestion?

Hi @pan0k

Glances return the "first" used IP address returned by the PsUtil lib.

Can you please copy/paste the result of the following commands lines:

python
> import psutil
> psutil.net_if_stats()
> psutil.net_if_addr()

Thanks !

Thanks for the reply. I ran the code snippet and got the following.
