Command for checking speed and duplex 2

[misjay01]

Hello,

I am currently running solaris 2.9 O.S. and am trying to find the command that will show me what current speed and duplex settings have been configured for the NIC cards.

Can someone help ?

TIA

Use these:

ndd -get /dev/hme link_speed 0 = 10MBit, 1 = 100MBit
ndd -get /dev/hme link_mode 0 = half duplex, 1 = full duplex

If you have more than one NIC, place the instance next to hme. Like /dev/hme0 and so on.

Nice little script for you.

Enjoy !

for i in `ifconfig -a | egrep "^eri" | awk '/^[a-z]*[0-9]*: / {print $1}' | sed s/://`
do
device=`echo $i | sed s/[0-9]*$//`
instance=0
ndd -set /dev/$device instance $instance
duplex=`ndd -get /dev/$device link_mode`
speed=`ndd -get /dev/$device link_speed`
autoneg=`ndd -get /dev/$device adv_autoneg_cap`
case "$speed" in
"0&quot echo "$i is at 10 mbit \c";;
"1&quot echo "$i is at 100 mbit \c";;
*) echo "$i is at ??? mbit \c";;
esac
case "$duplex" in
"0&quot echo "half duplex \c";;
"1&quot echo "full duplex \c";;
*) echo "??? duplex \c";;
esac
case "$autoneg" in
"0&quot echo "with auto negotiation";;
"1&quot echo "without auto negotiation";;
*) echo "??? auto negotiation";;
esac
done
