WRKTCPSTS (Work with TCP/IP Network Status)

WRKTCPSTS Command syntax diagram

 

Purpose

Use the Work with TCP/IP Network Status (WRKTCPSTS) command, also known as NETSTAT, to get information about the status of TCP/IP network routes, interfaces, TCP connections and UDP ports on your local system. You can also use NETSTAT to end TCP/IP connections and to start or end TCP/IP interfaces.

If IP over SNA (IPS) is enabled, NETSTAT displays information about the IP over SNA interfaces, routes, and connections. You can also use NETSTAT to end IP over SNA connections and to start or end IP over SNA interfaces.

To use this command, either the TCP/IP protocol stack or IP over SNA must be active. If neither is active, Netstat issues an escape message.
