Which commands help you verify interface status and assigned IP addresses?

• A. /interface print and /ip address print
• B. /interface print
• C. /ip address print
• D. /interface monitor-traffic

Answer: (C)

When you want to verify both what the interfaces are doing and what IPs they have, you need to look at two separate pieces of information. To see the actual status of each interface (whether it’s up, down, or has link issues), you use the command that lists interfaces and their current state. To see which IP addresses are assigned to which interfaces, you use the command that prints the IP address table, including the interface each address is bound to.

The command that shows IP addresses is the one that prints the IP address list; it tells you which addresses exist and which interface they’re on. However, it does not tell you whether the interface itself is currently up. To fully verify both aspects, you should run both commands: one to check interface status and another to check IP assignments. If you only run the IP address print, you’ll know what IPs exist and on which interfaces, but you won’t know the operational state of those interfaces.
