The ipconfig command in Windows provides details about a computer's network adapters, including IP addresses, subnet masks, default gateways, and DNS settings. It is particularly useful for troubleshooting connectivity issues.
traceroute (or tracert in Windows) is used to trace the path packets take to a destination.
nslookup is used for querying DNS records.
netstat provides details about active network connections and listening ports, but not adapter configurations.
