The command "ykman config nfc --list" is used to retrieve the current configuration settings for the YubiKey's Near Field Communication (NFC) feature. Here's a breakdown of each part of the command:

  • "ykman": This is the command-line interface (CLI) tool for managing YubiKey devices.
  • "config": This subcommand is used to configure various settings on the YubiKey.
  • "nfc": This option specifies that we are configuring the NFC feature of the YubiKey.
  • "--list": This option indicates that we want to retrieve the current configuration settings related to NFC.

When you run this command, it will display the current configuration of the YubiKey's NFC feature, providing information such as whether NFC is enabled or disabled, the NFC mode, tag interface, and other relevant details.
