The host is the PC you want to know what the IP is, right?
Easy ping the host by name. Start – Run – cmd – In the black box with cursor – write “ping” – space – name of computer.
Ex.
Ping homepc.local
4 replies will come back and the ip address will be listed too. So that is how you do it. If this PC is networked into your own PC try using Netstat command to see all ip’s connected to your PC. Netstat and Ping are tools and can be explained further by going to Help and Support located on the Start menu. Last green arrow under pick a task.
