Which command clears the NBTSTAT cache?

  1. NBTSTAT -c

  2. NBTSTAT -R

  3. NBTSTAT -RR

  4. NBTSTAT -a computername

The correct answer is: NBTSTAT -R

Using the "-R" option with the NBTSTAT command will flush and reset the local NBT (NetBIOS over TCP/IP) name cache. This option is used when troubleshooting NetBIOS name resolution issues. Option A ("-c") displays the contents of the name cache, option C ("-RR") releases names from the remote name cache if the DNS name query fails, and option D ("-a computername") displays the registered and standard names for a remote computer.
