Question

Problem:

Can anyone help it was actually asked in exam as following:

Which of the following commands would allow you to see if a remote computer is reachable?

1) ipconfig
2) netstat
3) ifconfig
4) ping

Answer 1

Let me try to help you with your query.

As per my experience and knowledge 

The correct answer is: ping
Ping allows you to see if a remote computer is reachable, but it does not show you the path that a packet takes to get to the remote computer. ifup is used to start (bring up) network interfaces  

Hope this might help you.
