A system administrator needs to view all the active TCP connections on a server. Which command-line tool should they use to display this information?
route
netstat
ip
ifconfig
The netstat command displays network connections, routing tables, and a number of network interface and network protocol statistics. It is widely used for finding problems in the network and to determine the amount of traffic on the network as a performance measurement. ss is a newer utility that can display more information and is faster than netstat, but the question specifically asks for the tool to view active TCP connections, which is a common use of netstat.
