# Obtaining system information by using the API

The `sysinfo` method produces the same information as the sysinfo command. The signature for this method is

    String getSysinfo();

For example:

    NetworkServerControl serverControl = new NetworkServerControl();
    String myinfo = serverControl.getSysinfo();

The `getSysinfo()` method returns information about the Network Server that is running on the current machine on the default port number (1527).
