Displaying Configuration Information

You can display information about the location configuration file or network directory file using the CONFIGURATION SUMMARY available as part of NETTOOL. You can also use this tool to compare one configuration file to another.

You can access information about configured network names and addresses using the NAME-ADDRESS MANAGER which is also available through NETTOOL.
