⮚ Introduction:
● Ping Command:
Ping is a network diagnostics tool for the Windows command
prompt. In network diagnostics, the command line program enables
you to verify if another computer is available in a connected local or
public network.
Ping is accessed using the command line prompt of the same name,
either in combination with the IP address or the target computer’s
host name. If the target computer is not located in the same local
network as the source computer, it is necessary to specify the
domain.
● Tracert Command:
The TRACERT diagnostic utility determines the route to a destination
by sending Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo packets
to the destination. In these packets, TRACERT uses varying IP Time-
To-Live (TTL) values. Because each router along the path is required
to decrement the packet's TTL by at least 1 before forwarding the
packet, the TTL is effectively a hop counter. When the TTL on a
packet reaches zero (0), the router sends an ICMP "Time Exceeded"
message back to the source computer.
● Netstat Commands:
The netstat command, meaning network statistics, is a Command
Prompt command used to display very detailed information about
how your computer is communicating with other computers or
network devices.
Specifically, the netstat command can show details about individual
network connections, overall and protocol-specific networking
statistics, and much more, all of which could help troubleshoot
certain kinds of networking issues.
● Wireshark Command:
Wireshark supports a large number of command line parameters. To
see what they are, simply enter the command wireshark -h and the
help information shown in Help information available from
Wireshark (or something\
similar) should be printed. Help information available from
Wireshark.
● ARP Command:
The ARP commands to view, display, or modify the
details/information in an ARP table/cache.
The ARP cache or table has the dynamic list of IP and MAC addresses
of those devices to which your computer has communicated recently
in a local network.
● IPConfig Command:
In Windows, ipconfig is a console application designed to run from
the Windows command prompt. This utility allows you to get the IP
address information of a Windows computer. It also allows some
control over your network adapters, IP addresses (DHCP-assigned
specifically), even your DNS cache. Ipconfig replaced the older
winipcfg utility.
