Answer from AI
For network diagnostics, I use the following tools:
- ping — to check node availability and measure response time.
- traceroute (tracert) — to determine the route of packets and identify bottlenecks.
- netstat — to view active connections and ports.
- tcpdump — to capture and analyze network traffic at a low level.
- Wireshark — a graphical packet analyzer for detailed examination of network protocols.
- mtr — a combined ping and traceroute tool for real-time route monitoring.
- iperf — to measure network bandwidth.
These tools help identify issues with delays, packet loss, incorrect routing, and other network anomalies.
