Here is a quick summary of commonly used network commands in PowerShell. The info was gathered from a series of tweets from Jose Baretto.
Update April 20, 2015: Jose just put together a very nice blog post, covering this in great more detail, check it out: Windows PowerShell equivalents for common networking commands (IPCONFIG, PING, NSLOOKUP)
- ipconfig: Get-NetIPAddress | FT
- Ping: Test-NetConnection
- tracert: Test-NetConnection -TraceRoute
- route: Get-NetRoute
- nslookup: Resolve-DNSName

Happy Deployment
