Why each option
The `netstat` command does not inherently provide information about broadcast services.
While `netstat` can display network connections, routing tables, and interface statistics, it does not typically list or manage broadcast services directly.
`netstat -i` displays network interface information, including statistics.
`netstat -M` can display masqueraded connections if the kernel is configured for IP masquerading.
`netstat -a` or `netstat -tupn` shows active network connections (TCP, UDP).
`netstat -r` displays the kernel IP routing table.
