What this question is testing

Objective: Network Troubleshooting

Prompt focus: Which command displays the IP configuration of a Windows PC, including IPv4 address, subnet mask, and default gateway?

Why the correct answer works

ipconfig

ipconfig shows Windows IP configuration.

Why the tempting wrong answer fails

The tempting wrong answer usually loses because it skips the key condition, priority, or evidence in the prompt.

Plain-language takeaway

The Windows 'ipconfig' command shows IP configuration. 'ipconfig /all' adds DNS servers, DHCP info, and MAC address.

Simple analogy

Think of network troubleshooting like following a short checklist: identify the clue, confirm the rule, and then make the move that fits this exact scenario.
