Fedora Linux is a free, open-source Linux distribution backed by Red Hat. The IP address of a network adapter is its location on the Internet. Other computers need your IP address to connect to your Fedora Linux system. Fedora includes the "Network Manager," which manages active network adapters and provides a graphical tool for viewing their information and IP addresses, as well as standard Linux command line tools for doing the same.
