# Get Your Public IP Address

You'll need your public IP address for the service node setup.

Windows (PowerShell):

```
(Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://api.ipify.org" -UseBasicParsing).Content
```

Linux:

```
curl https://api.ipify.org
```

Copy this IP address - you'll need it in Step 4. It will look something like `84.46.247.120`.
