Explanation

'ipconfig' (E) is the Windows command-line tool used to display IP address configuration for all network adapters. 'ifconfig' (D) is its Unix/Linux equivalent that displays interface configuration including IP addresses, subnet masks, and MAC addresses. 'dig' (A) and 'nslookup' (B) are DNS lookup tools, not adapter configuration tools. 'nbstat' (C) - the correct command is 'nbtstat' - displays NetBIOS over TCP/IP statistics and name tables, not IP address assignments. Note: modern Linux systems often use 'ip addr' instead of ifconfig, but ifconfig remains a valid and widely tested answer.
