A network administrator needs to check the IP address, subnet mask, and other interface details on a modern Linux workstation. Which of the following commands is the current standard for displaying this information?
The ip addr command is the modern standard on Linux systems for displaying network interface information, including IP addresses, subnet masks, and MAC addresses. The ifconfig command, while historically used for this purpose, is considered deprecated. The ping command is used to test network connectivity to a specific host, and netstat -r is used to display the IP routing table.
