From a command prompt on a
Microsoft Windows system, you can obtain details on the network configuration
by issuing the command ipconfig or ipconfig /all, if
you wish to see more details. If you are only interested in a specific value or
values, though, you can
pipe the output
of the command to the findstr
command. If you wish to see multiple values, e.g., the subnet mask and the
default gateway address, you can put text associated with both values,
separated by a space, within double quotes. Findstr will treat the space
between strings as instructing it to perform a
logical OR
operation, i.e., it will find any lines that contain either of the strings.
Findstr uses a case sensitive search, so you need to either match the case of
the text or use the /i option with findstr, which instructs it to
ignore the case of text and perform a case insensitive search.
C:\>ipconfig | findstr "Mask Gateway" Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.224 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1 C:\>ipconfig | findstr "mask gateway" C:\>ipconfig /all | findstr /i "mask gateway" Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.224 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1 C:\>
You can also use a Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) command to obtain the same information.
C:\>wmic nicconfig get defaultIPGateway, IPSubnet
