How to understand that an inductor behaves like short circuit and capacitor like an open circuit in steady state in a network?

It depends on the steady-state frequency. At zero frequency an inductor behaves like an open circuit. As the frequency increases, the inductor acts more like an open circuit and a capacitator acts more like a short circuit
