How can I open a URL on the terminal. It’s just a verification URL for OpenDNS which needs to be opened using the IP address on which I am setting up OpenDNS.

I am not sure about the exact need here but have you tried curl to access the website? Does that fulfil your requirement?

#curl domain.com

If not you can use LYNX to browse websites in Text Mode. Refer: https://www.linuxhelp.com/how-to-install-lynx-2-8-9-on-ubuntu-18-04 https://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/install-and-use-lynx-on-ubuntu/
