Explanation

NETSTAT (Network Statistics) is a command-line utility that displays active network connections, listening ports, protocol statistics, and routing tables. Running 'netstat -an' shows all active TCP/UDP ports and their states. PING tests connectivity to a host by sending ICMP echo requests. IPCONFIG displays the local machine's IP address configuration. TRACERT traces the network route (hops) to a destination host. None of the other three show active port listings.
