Explanation
ifconfig (interface configuration) is a Linux/Unix command used to display and configure network interface parameters such as IP address, subnet mask, MAC address, and interface status. It is the standard tool for viewing network settings on a Linux workstation. chmod is used to change file/directory permissions, grep is used to search text patterns within files, and sudo is used to execute commands with elevated (superuser) privileges - none of which provide network configuration information.
