Networking Commands

ip, netstat, ss.

Networking on the Command Line

Recon and pivoting both depend on understanding a host's network state. Linux gives you sharp tools to view interfaces, connections, and routes.

This lesson covers ip, netstat, and ss, plus connectivity testing.

Viewing Interfaces with ip

The modern ip command replaces the old ifconfig. Start by listing addresses on every interface.

ip addr show
ip a            # short form
