## I2P-related information in Bitcoin Core
There are several ways to see your I2P address in Bitcoin Core:
-- in the debug log (grep for `AddLocal`, the I2P address ends in `.b32.i2p`)
-- in the output of the `getnetworkinfo` RPC in the "localaddresses" section
-- in the output of `bitcoin-cli -netinfo` peer connections dashboard
+- in the "Local addresses" output of CLI `-netinfo`
+- in the "localaddresses" output of RPC `getnetworkinfo`
+- in the debug log (grep for `AddLocal`; the I2P address ends in `.b32.i2p`)
To see which I2P peers your node is connected to, use `bitcoin-cli -netinfo 4`
or the `getpeerinfo` RPC (e.g. `bitcoin-cli getpeerinfo`).
