[SOLVED] How do I check what I'm using for my networking?

I can't remember what I did when I installed Arch and set up my networking. Is there an easy way to find out what I am using? All I'm using is wired internet, with DHCP.

I checked the status on a few services:

systemctl status dhcpcd.service 
● dhcpcd.service - dhcpcd on all interfaces
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dhcpcd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)

systemctl status systemd-networkd
● systemd-networkd.service - Network Service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-networkd.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabl
   Active: inactive (dead)
     Docs: man:systemd-networkd.service(8)

systemctl status netctl 
● netctl.service - (Re)store the netctl profile state
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/netctl.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)

I also have no netctl profile setup, 'netctl list' listed nothing.

systemctl list-units --type service --state active

This was listed,

dhcpcd@eno1.service                    loaded active running dhcpcd on eno1

so I must be using dhcpd.

Thanks!

No, dhcpd is a DHCP server, dhcpcd is a DHCP client

That's what I meant.
