Fl s 70.Op Fl f Ar address_family 71.Op Fl i 72.Op Fl I Ar Interface 73.Sh DESCRIPTION 74The 75.Nm 76command symbolically displays the contents of various network-related 77data structures. 78There are a number of output formats, 79depending on the options for the information presented. 80.Pp 81The first form of the command displays a list of active sockets for 82each protocol. 83The second form presents the contents of one of the other network 84data structures according to the option selected. 85Using the third form, with a 86.Ar wait 87interval specified, 88.Nm 89will continuously display the information regarding packet 90traffic on the configured network interfaces. 91The fourth form displays statistics about the named protocol. 92The fifth and sixth forms display per interface statistics for 93the specified protocol or address family. 94.Pp 95The options are as follows: 96.Bl -tag -width Ds 97.It Fl A 98With the default display, 99show the address of any protocol control blocks associated with sockets; used 100for debugging. 101.It Fl a 102With the default display, 103show the state of all sockets; normally sockets used by 104server processes are not shown. 105.It Fl b 106With the interface display (option 107.Fl i ) , 108show bytes in and out, instead of packet statistics. 109.It Fl d 110With either interface display (option 111.Fl i 112or an interval, as described below), 113show the number of dropped packets. 114.It Fl f Ar address_family 115Limit statistics or address control block reports to those 116of the specified 117.Ar address_family . 118.Pp 119The following address families are recognized: 120.Pp 121.Bl -column "Address Family" "AF_APPLETA" "Description" -offset indent -compact 122.It Sy "Address Family" Ta Sy "Constant" Ta Sy "Description" 123.It "inet" Dv Ta "AF_INET" Ta "IP Version 4" 124.It "inet6" Dv Ta "AF_INET6" Ta "IP Version 6" 125.It "ipx" Dv Ta "AF_IPX" Ta "Novell IPX" 126.It "atalk" Dv Ta "AF_APPLETALK" Ta

Host (i.e., pipes)" 131.It "unix" Dv Ta "AF_UNIX" Ta "Local to Host (i.e., pipes)" 132.El 133.Pp 134.It Fl g 135Show information related to multicast (group address) routing. 136By default, show the IP Multicast virtual-interface and routing tables. 137If the 138.Fl s 139option is also present, show multicast routing statistics. 140.It Fl I Ar interface 141Show information about the specified 142.Ar interface ; 143used with a 144.Ar wait 145interval as described below. 146.Pp 147If the 148.Fl f Ar address_family 149option (with the 150.Fl s 151option) or the 152.Fl p Ar protocol 153option is present, show per-interface statistics on the given interface 154for the specified 155.Ar address_family 156or 157.Ar protocol , 158respectively. 159.It Fl i 160Show the state of interfaces which have been auto-configured 161(interfaces statically configured into a system but not 162located at boot-time are not shown). 163.Pp 164If the 165.Fl a 166option is also present, multicast addresses currently in use are shown 167for each Ethernet interface and for each IP interface address. 168Multicast addresses are shown on separate lines following the interface 169address with which they are associated. 170.Pp 171If the 172.Fl f Ar address_family 173option (with the 174.Fl s 175option) or the 176.Fl p Ar protocol 177option is present, show per-interface statistics on all interfaces 178for the specified 179.Ar address_family 180or 181.Ar protocol , 182respectively. 183.It Fl M Ar core 184Extract values associated with the name list from the specified core 185instead of the default 186.Pa /dev/kmem . 187.It Fl m 188Show statistics recorded by the memory management routines 189(the network manages a private pool of memory buffers). 190.It Fl N Ar system 191Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the default 192.Pa /bsd . 193.It Fl n 194Show network addresses as numbers (normally 195.Nm 196interprets addresses and attempts to display them 197symbolically). 198This option may be used with any of the display formats. 199.It Fl p Ar protocol 200Show statistics about 201.Ar protocol , 202which is either a well-known name for a protocol or an alias for it. 203Some protocol names and aliases are listed in the file 204.Pa /etc/protocols . 205A null response typically means that there are no interesting numbers to 206report. 207The program will complain if 208.Ar protocol 209is unknown or if there is no statistics routine for it. 210.It Fl s 211Show per-protocol statistics. 212If this option is repeated, counters with a value of zero are suppressed. 213.It Fl r 214Show the routing tables. 215If the 216.Fl s 217option is also specified, show routing statistics instead. 218.It Fl v 219Be verbose. 220Avoids truncation of long addresses. 221.It Fl w Ar wait 222Show network interface statistics at intervals of 223.Ar wait 224seconds. 225.El 226.Pp 227The default display, for active sockets, shows the local 228and remote addresses, send and receive queue sizes (in bytes), protocol, 229and the internal state of the protocol. 230.Pp 231Address formats are of the form 232.Dq host.port 233or 234.Dq network.port 235if a socket's address specifies a network but no specific host address. 236When known, the host and network addresses are displayed symbolically 237according to the databases 238.Pa /etc/hosts 239and 240.Pa /etc/networks , 241respectively. 242If a symbolic name for an address is unknown, or if the 243.Fl n 244option is specified, the address is printed numerically, according 245to the address family. 246.Pp 247For more information regarding the Internet 248.Dq dot format , 249refer to 250.Xr inet 3 . 251Unspecified, or 252.Dq wildcard 253addresses and ports appear as a single 254.Dq \&* . 255If a local port number is registered as being in use for RPC by 256.Xr portmap 8 , 257its RPC service name or RPC service number will be printed in 258.Dq [] 259immediately after the port number. 260.Pp 261The interface display provides a table of cumulative 262statistics regarding packets transferred, errors, and collisions. 263The network addresses of the interface 264and the maximum transmission unit (MTU) are also displayed. 265.Pp 266The routing table display indicates the available routes and their status. 267Each route consists of a destination host or network and 268a gateway to use in forwarding packets. 269If the destination is a 270network in numeric format, the netmask (in /24 style format) is appended. 271The flags field shows a collection of information about 272the route stored as binary choices. 273The individual flags are discussed in more detail in the 274.Xr route 8 275and 276.Xr route 4 277manual pages. 278.Pp 279The mapping between letters and flags is: 280.Bl -column XXXX RTF_BLACKHOLE 2811 RTF_PROTO1 Protocol specific routing flag #1. 2822 RTF_PROTO2 Protocol specific routing flag #2. 2833 RTF_PROTO3 Protocol specific routing flag #3. 284B RTF_BLACKHOLE Just discard pkts (during updates). 285C RTF_CLONING Generate new routes on use. 286D RTF_DYNAMIC Created dynamically (by redirect). 287G RTF_GATEWAY Destination requires forwarding by intermediary. 288H RTF_HOST Host entry (net otherwise). 289L RTF_LLINFO Valid protocol to link address translation. 290M RTF_MODIFIED Modified dynamically (by redirect). 291R RTF_REJECT Host or net unreachable. 292S RTF_STATIC Manually added. 293U RTF_UP Route usable. 294X RTF_XRESOLVE External daemon translates proto to link address. 295.El 296.Pp 297Direct routes are created for each interface attached to the local host; 298the gateway field for such entries shows the address of the outgoing interface. 299The refcnt field gives the current number of active uses of the route. 300Connection oriented protocols normally hold on to a single route for the 301duration of a connection while connectionless protocols obtain a route while 302sending to the same destination. 303The use field provides a count of the number of packets sent using that route. 304The MTU entry shows the MTU associated with that route. 305This MTU value is used as the basis for the TCP maximum segment size (MSS). 306The 'L' flag appended to the mtu value indicates that the value is 307locked, and that path mtu discovery is turned off for that route. 308A 309.Sq - 310indicates that the MTU for this route has not been set, and a default 311TCP maximum segment size will be used. 312The interface entry indicates the network interface utilized for the route. 313.Pp 314When 315.Nm 316is invoked with the 317.Fl w 318option and a 319.Ar wait 320interval argument, it displays a running count of statistics related to 321network interfaces. 322An obsolescent version of this option used a numeric parameter 323with no option, and is currently supported for backward compatibility. 324This display consists of a column for the primary interface (the first 325interface found during autoconfiguration) and a column summarizing 326information for all interfaces. 327The primary interface may be replaced with another interface with the 328.Fl I 329option. 330The first line of each screen of information contains a summary since the 331system was last rebooted. 332Subsequent lines of output show values accumulated over the preceding interval. 333.Sh SEE ALSO 334.Xr nfsstat 1 , 335.Xr ps 1 , 336.Xr netintro 4 ,
