Network Information Skill

Explores network configuration and connectivity on Linux systems.

Suggested Workflow

  1. Run ./scripts/netinfo.sh for a structured overview of interfaces, IPs, routes, DNS, and listening ports.
  2. Check ip addr for interface status and assigned addresses.
  3. Verify routing with ip route and DNS with cat /etc/resolv.conf.
  4. Inspect listening services with ss -tuln to identify open ports.

Commands Reference

Network Interfaces

  • ip addr or ip a - Show all network interfaces and IP addresses
  • ip link - Show interface status (up/down)
  • cat /sys/class/net/*/address - MAC addresses

Routing

  • ip route - Show routing table
  • ip route get 8.8.8.8 - Show route to a specific destination

DNS Configuration

  • cat /etc/resolv.conf - DNS servers
  • cat /etc/hosts - Local host mappings
  • systemd-resolve --status - DNS status (systemd systems)

Active Connections

  • ss -tuln - Show listening TCP/UDP ports
  • ss -tupn - Show established connections with process info
  • cat /proc/net/tcp - Raw TCP connection data

Network Statistics

  • ip -s link - Interface statistics (bytes, packets, errors)
  • cat /proc/net/dev - Network device statistics

Tips

  • Use ip commands (modern) over ifconfig/netstat (deprecated)
  • The -n flag prevents DNS lookups for faster output
  • Check ss -tuln to see what services are listening
