You need to see if your computer has connectivity with a server on the same subnetwork. What command do you use?

To determine if your computer has connectivity with a server on the same subnetwork, the command you would use is "Ping." This command sends Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages to the specific IP address of the target server. If the server is reachable and operational, it replies with Echo Reply messages. This process helps you confirm the status of the network connection.

"Ping" is particularly useful for checking basic connectivity issues, as it can quickly indicate whether the server is alive and responsive on the network. If you receive replies, it suggests that there are no immediate network problems between your computer and the server; conversely, if there are timeouts or no replies, it may indicate issues such as a network failure, incorrect IP configuration, or that the server is down.

Other commands, while useful in their capacities, serve different purposes. "Trace" (or Tracert in Windows) helps track the path packets take to reach a destination, providing information on route hops rather than basic connectivity. "Nslookup" is utilized for querying DNS to obtain domain name or IP address mapping, and "Netstat" displays information about active connections and listening ports on the local machine, neither of which address the need for verifying server connectivity directly
