In Windows NT, which command displays the IP network adapter information?
A.
Ping /r
B.
Ipconfig /all
C.
tracert
D.
ifconfig
Explanation:
The ipconfig command will provide IP information for a machine. It will list all adapters, with the
domain name, IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. By adding the /all parameter, for
each interface we will get the NIC type/brand, the physical address (The MA address), and the
remainder of the IP stack data, including the primary and secondary DNS servers, WINS Servers,
and DHCP client information.
Incorrect Answers:
A: A ping /r command is used by the ping command to record the route for count hops. It does not
provide adapter information for any machine, including the source and target nodes.
C: Tracert is the traceroute command, and is used to record the hops along the path between the
source machine and the target machine. Like ping, the tracert command uses ICMP echo/reply
commands, and does not collect or obtain adapter information for any machine or device,
including the source and target machines.
D: Ifconfig is not supported on the Windows NT Platform.
