You can use the ethtool
command to view Ethernet statistics on Linux.
Here’s how to view Ethernet statistics for a specific interface:
- Open a terminal window.
- Type the following command:
ethtool eth0
(replace “eth0” with the name of the interface you want to view). - Press Enter.
This will display information about the specified interface, including link status, speed, and duplex mode.
If you want to see more detailed statistics, you can add the “-S” option to the command. For example:
ethtool -S eth0
This will show detailed statistics for the interface, such as the number of packets transmitted and received, and error counts.
You can also use the ifconfig
command to view Ethernet statistics, but it provides less detailed information than ethtool
. For example:
ifconfig eth0
This will show basic information about the interface, such as its IP address, netmask, and broadcast address, but not detailed statistics.
