Displaying a list of netsh lan commands.
netsh, or network shell, is a command-line utility included in Microsoft's Windows NT operating system product line since Windows 2000.[1] It allows local or remote configuration of network devices such as the interface.[2]
Overview[]
netsh is most often used to reset the TCP/IP stack to default, known-good parameters – a task that in Windows 98 required reinstallation of the TCP/IP adapter. In this mode, a user needs a log file that will contain information about the parameters whose values have changed.
Among other things, netsh allows the user to change the IP address on their machine.
Starting from Windows Vista, a user can also edit wireless settings (for example, SSID) using netsh. It can also be used to read information from the IPv6 stack.
The command netsh winsock reset can be used to reset TCP/IP problems when communicating with a networked device.
