How can you verify the network adapter’s IP configuration on Windows?

To verify the network adapter's IP configuration on Windows, accessing the Network and Sharing Center is the correct approach. This utility provides a centralized interface where users can view and manage network connections.

Within the Network and Sharing Center, you can click on "Change adapter settings," which will display all network adapters. By right-clicking on a specific adapter and selecting "Status," you can then click on "Details" to see detailed information about the adapter's IP configuration, including its IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS servers.

The BIOS settings, on the other hand, control hardware-level configurations and do not provide details regarding the operating system's network configuration. The device manager focuses on the hardware status and drivers rather than the specific configurations of the network settings. Checking the System Properties primarily provides general information about the system and installed hardware rather than detailed network configurations. Thus, the Network and Sharing Center is specifically designed for managing and viewing network configurations in Windows.
