7ba0088d 100.\"-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b7080c8e 101The
7ba0088d
A
102.Nm
103command symbolically displays the contents of various network-related data structures.
104There are a number of output formats, depending on the options for the information presented.
105The first form of the command displays a list of active sockets for each protocol.
106The second form presents the contents of one of the other network data structures according
107to the option selected. Using the third form, with a
b7080c8e
A
108.Ar wait
109interval specified,
7ba0088d
A
110.Nm
111will continuously display the information regarding packet traffic on the configured network
b8dff150
A
112interfaces. The fourth form displays statistics for the specified protocol or address family. If a
113.Ar wait
114interval is specified, the protocol information over the last interval seconds will be displayed.
7ba0088d
A
115The fifth form displays per-interface statistics for the specified protocol or address family.
116The sixth form displays
117.Xr mbuf 9
118statistics. The seventh form displays routing table for the specified address family. The
119eighth form displays routing statistics.
b7080c8e

120.Pp
121The options have the following meaning:
122.Bl -tag -width flag
123.It Fl A
7ba0088d 124With the default display, show the address of any protocol control blocks associated with
7af5ce03 125sockets and the flow hash; used for debugging.
b7080c8e 126.It Fl a
7ba0088d

127With the default display, show the state of all sockets; normally sockets used by server
128processes are not shown. With the routing table display (option
129.Fl r ,
130as described below), show protocol-cloned routes (routes generated by a
131.Dv RTF_PRCLONING

A
145or an interval, as described below), show the number of dropped packets.
146.It Fl f Ar address_family
147Limit statistics or address control block reports to those of the specified
b7080c8e 148.Ar address family .
7ba0088d 149The following address families are recognized:
b7080c8e

160.It Fl g
fdfd5971 161Show information related to multicast (group address) membership. If the
b7080c8e 162.Fl s
fdfd5971
A
163option is also present, show extended interface group management statistics. If the
164.Fl v
165option is specified, show link-layer memberships; they are suppressed by default.
166Source lists for each group will also be printed. Specifiying
167.Fl v
168twice will print the control plane timers for each interface and the source list counters
169for each group. If the
170.Fl i
171is specified, only that interface will be shown. If the
172.Fl f
173is specified, only information for the address family will be displayed.
7ba0088d
A
174.It Fl I Ar interface
175Show information about the specified interface; used with a
b7080c8e
A
176.Ar wait
177interval as described below.
b7080c8e 178If the
7ba0088d
A
179.Fl s
180option is present, show per-interface protocol statistics on the
181.Ar interface
182for the specified
183.Ar address_family
184or
185.Ar protocol ,
186or for all protocol families.
187.It Fl i
188Show the state of interfaces which have been auto-configured (interfaces statically
189configured into a system, but not located at boot time are not shown). If the
b7080c8e 190.Fl a
7ba0088d
A
191options is also present, multicast addresses currently in use are shown for each
192Ethernet interface and for each IP interface address. Multicast addresses are shown
193on separate lines following the interface address with which they are associated.
194If the
195.Fl s
196option is present, show per-interface statistics on all interfaces for the specified
197.Ar address_family
198or
199.Ar protocol ,
200or for all protocol families.
201.It Fl L
202Show the size of the various listen queues. The first count shows the number of
203unaccepted connections. The second count shows the amount of unaccepted incomplete
204connections. The third count is the maximum number of queued connections.
205.It Fl l
206Print full IPv6 address.
b7080c8e 207.It Fl m
b8dff150
A
208Show statistics recorded by the memory management routines (the network stack manages a private pool of memory buffers). More detailed information about the buffers, which includes their cache related statistics, can be obtained by using
209.Fl mm
210or
211.Fl m
212.Fl m
213option.
b7080c8e
A
214.It Fl n
215Show network addresses as numbers (normally
7ba0088d
A
216.Nm
217interprets addresses and attempts to display them symbolically). This option may be
218used with any of the display formats.
219.It Fl p Ar protocol
b7080c8e 220Show statistics about
7ba0088d
A
221.Ar protocol ,
222which is either a well-known name for a protocol or an alias for it. Some protocol
223names and aliases are listed in the file
b7080c8e 224.Pa /etc/protocols .
7ba0088d
A
225The special protocol name
226.Dq bdg
227is used to show bridging statistics. A null response typically means that there are
228no interesting numbers to report. The program will complain if
b7080c8e
A
229.Ar protocol
230is unknown or if there is no statistics routine for it.
7af5ce03
A
231.It Fl q
232Show network interface send queue statistics. By default all queues are displayed, unless
233specified with
234.Fl c .
235This option requires specifying an interface with
236.Fl I
237option. More detailed information about the queues, which includes their queueing algorithm related statistics, can be obtained by using
238.Fl qq
239or
240.Fl q
241.Fl q
242option.
b7080c8e 243.It Fl r
7ba0088d

244Show the routing tables. Use with
245.Fl a
246to show protocol-cloned routes. When
b7080c8e 247.Fl s

257.Fl i
258to show link-layer reachability information for a given interface.
7ba0088d
A
259.It Fl s
260Show per-protocol statistics. If this option is repeated, counters with a value of
261zero are suppressed.
89c4ed63
A
262.It Fl S
263Show interface link status and interface state information about the specified interface. This option requires specifying an interface with
264.Fl I
265option.

266.It Fl v
267Increase verbosity level.
7ba0088d
A
268.It Fl W

285The default display, for active sockets, shows the local and remote addresses,

392Direct routes are created for each interface attached to the local host;
393the gateway field for such entries shows the address of the outgoing
394interface. The refcnt field gives the current number of active uses of
395the route. Connection oriented protocols normally hold on to a single
396route for the duration of a connection while connectionless protocols
397obtain a route while sending to the same destination. The use field
398provides a count of the number of packets sent using that route. The
399interface entry indicates the network interface utilized for the route.
9c859447 400A route which is marked with the RTF_IFSCOPE flag is instantiated for
