You need to find out the name of a host using an IP address on the Internet. Which of the following will provide the name?

Tracert
Netstat
Ipconfig
Nslookup

Explanation

Answer: D - Nslookup is a command-line administrative tool used to test and troubleshoot DNS servers.

Key Takeaway: Ns lookup is used in Windows and Unix to query Domain Name System (DNS) servers to find DNS details, including IP addresses of a particular computer, MX records for a domain, and the NS servers of a domain. Ipconfig merely displays the IP parameters. Tracert gives the number of hops to reach the destination. Netstat is a useful tool for checking your network configuration and activity.
