A technician is documenting an application that is installed on a server and needs to verify all existing web and database connections to the server. Which of the following tools should the technician use to accomplish this task?
To verify existing web and database connections to a server, the technician should use:
C. netstat
The netstat (network statistics) command is used to display active network connections, listening ports, and other network-related information on a computer or server. By running netstat, the technician can see a list of established connections, including those associated with web and database services. This information helps in documenting and verifying the current network connections to the server.
GPT picks (C) netstat for these reasons:
"Netstat (short for "network statistics") is a command-line tool that provides information about active network connections and listening ports on a system. It can show you the current network connections, along with information about the local and remote addresses, port numbers, connection status, and more. This information can help you identify which connections are established to the server and what ports are being used for communication.
Options (A) tracert, (B) ipconfig, and (D) nslookup serve different purposes:
Tracert (A) is used to trace the route that packets take to reach a destination, showing each hop along the way.
Ipconfig (B) is used to display IP configuration information for a network interface.
Nslookup (D) is used to query DNS servers to resolve domain names into IP addresses.
None of these alternatives provide the detailed information about existing connections that the technician needs to verify web and database connections to the server"
The correct answer is C. netstat.
Netstat is a command-line utility that allows the technician to view active TCP/IP connections and their status. The technician can use the command "netstat -an" to check all existing connections, including web and database connections to the server. This will show the status of the connections, the local and remote IP addresses, and the port numbers being used.
Answer is C: Netstat - The netstat command displays the contents of various network-related data structures for active connections. This netstat function shows the state of all configured interfaces. Keyword here is cpnnections:... "needs to verify all existing web and database connections to the server."
Hey Jamber, I do believe that it is the following "to verify all existing web and database connections to the server" after tying the command on a server at work it made sense to me. I hope your studies have been beneficial to you and if you took your exam already hoped you passed :) .
"ipconfig" lists all TCP/IP information and network adapter information of a device. This is where you usually find the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, DHCP servers, DNS servers, and other network configuration settings.
"netstat" shows all active connections to a device. Because the technician wants to verify all existing web and database connections, netstat will show all active connections.
