IPCONFIG is one, and it is a part of Windows 2000-Win7. In the run box or the command console you would first do: Ipconfig /release Then you would do: Ipconfig /renew If you have Windows 95/98, the equivalent would be WINIPCFG, and it is in the form of a GUI, so you would click on the release or unbind button and then on the renew or bind button.
Ping is a useful TCP/IP utility to check network connectivity. Two other useful troubleshooting tools are Ipconfig (Windows 200/XP) and Winipcfg (Windows 9x/ME), which test TCP/IP configuration.
Yes, the ipconfig command does work on Windows 98, but it is not natively available as it is in later versions of Windows. Instead, Windows 98 uses the winipcfg utility to display IP configuration details. Users can access it by running winipcfg from the Run dialog. This tool provides similar functionality to ipconfig found in more recent Windows operating systems.
