• The telnet command can be used to test the status of a TCP port on a specific IP address or hostname.
• The "ipconfig" command provides information about the IP addresses of network connections on a Windows computer.
• The "arp -a" command can be used in combination with "ipconfig" to get a more detailed list of connected devices and their IP addresses.
• It is recommended to consult the documentation or support resources provided by the manufacturer of your USB device server for specific instructions on finding the IP address.
