The netstat command in Linux displays active network connections, listening ports, and network statistics. It is useful for diagnosing network issues and identifying open connections.
nslookup is for DNS queries.
dig provides DNS information, not network connection status.
ifconfig shows network interface details but does not list active connections.

I keep mixing up netstat and ifconfig. I think ifconfig is more about interface configurations, not connections.
