Example: ping www.google.com $ping Output: $ping localhost Output: $ping Output: 2. hostname Gives the host name of the computer they are logged into. To set the hostname permanently use /etc/sysconfig/network file. $hostname Output : 3. traceroute traceroute is a network troubleshooting utility which shows number of hops taken to reach destination also determine packets traveling path $traceroute ip-address Output 4. netstat Netstat (Network Statistic) command displays interfaces, connection information, routing table information etc. $netstat Output : Execute it with the following options and write the output: netstat –t netstat –s –t netstat -i 5. ifconfig ifconfig is used for displaying network interface information. $/sbin/ifconfig Output :

9. tcpdump
Tcpdump prints out a description of the contents of packets on a network interface that match the boolean expression; the description is preceded by a time stamp, printed, by default, as hours, minutes, seconds, and fractions of a second since midnight.
Sample output for ARP protocol:
arp who-has 128.3.254.6 tell 128.3.254.68 arp reply 128.3.254.6 is-at 02:07:01:00:01:c4
