Displaying Information

To display concise TCP/IP information about the local host, type ipconfig at a command prompt. This entry displays the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway for each network interface card on the local host that uses TCP/IP. The following is an example of output displayed after ipconfig is typed from a command prompt:

C:\>ipconfig

Windows NT IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter NDISLoop1:
IP Address. . . . . . . . . : 200.20.1.30
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . : 200.20.1.1

For more detailed information, you can run the ipconfig/all command from a command prompt. The ipconfig/all command lists the following bits of information for each network interface card on the local host that is bound to TCP/IP:

The Domain Name Service (DNS) host name, appended to the DNS domain name if one is configured
The IP address of any DNS servers configured
The NetBIOS name resolution node type, such as broadcast (b-node), hybrid (h-node), peer-to-peer (p-node), or mixed (m-node)
The NetBIOS scope ID
Whether IP Routing is enabled between two network interface cards, if on a multihomed computer
Whether this host acts as a WINS proxy agent for non-WINS clients
Whether NetBT on this host uses DNS for NetBIOS name resolution

Also, for each network interface card bound to TCP/IP on the host, ipconfig/all displays the following:

A description of the type or model of network card
The hardware or physical address of the network card
Whether DHCP is enabled for automatic IP address configuration for the network card
The IP address of the network card
The subnet mask for the network card
The default gateway for the network card
The IP address for the primary WINS server for the network card, if configured
The IP address for the secondary WINS server for the network card, if configured

The following example shows output after you type ipconfig/all at a command prompt:

C:\>ipconfig/all
Windows NT IP Configuration
Host Name . . . . . . . . . : binky.gopherit.com
DNS servers . . . . . . . . : 200.20.16.122

NetBIOS Scope ID. . . . . . :
IP Routing Enabled. . . . . : No
WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . : No
NetBIOS Resolution Uses DNS : Yes
Ethernet adapter NDISLoop1:
