netstat (network statistics) is a command-line tool used to display network connections, routing tables, and network interface statistics. It provides information about active TCP and UDP connections, listening ports, and the status of network interfaces. By using netstat, users can monitor network activity, diagnose connectivity issues, and identify open ports and services running on a system. The tool is available on various operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux, and is often employed for network troubleshooting and security assessments.
