Can I find a site's IP address in Firefox?

1. If I am connected to a website and would like to find the resolved IP address, how do I do that?

I know that I can use commands such as tracert in a terminal window, but I would prefer to find the IP address Firefox just used to get to the webpage.

2. Shouldn't this info be provided using the View Page Info selection? What is the philosophy behind not providing this information?

Thank you.

hello jwriter, this currently isn't a feature available in firefox as far as i know (presumably because it would be of little relevance to most users). you could either use https://input.mozilla.org/feedback for general feedback or if you feel that it's something missing in the browser nevertheless please file an enhancement bug at bugzilla.mozilla.org about the issue.
