Check Public IP via Curl
The curl command below queries RookCheck's IP API and returns your public IP as JSON. With a VPN active, the IP should match your VPN exit node.
Command
curl -s https://rookvpn.com/check/api/ip/addressWhen to use this command
Run before and after connecting a VPN to confirm your visible IP changed. Use RookCurl to execute the command without installing curl locally.
FAQ
