Description
NetworkInterfacesView is a simple tool that displays the list of all network adapters/interfaces installed on your system.
It displays network interfaces that are currently active, as well as network interfaces that have been installed previously, and now
they are not connected (like USB wireless network adapters).
For every network interface found on your system, the following information is displayed (if it's stored in the Registry):
Device Name, Connection Name, IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, DHCP Server, Status, MAC Address and more...
You can select one or more network interface items and then export them to xml/html/csv/tab-delimited file, or copy them into the clipboard and then paste them
into Excel or other spreadsheet application.
