How to Display the Status of Transmissions for Packets of a Specific Address Type

Use the -f option of the netstat command to view statistics related to packet transmissions of a particular address family.

View statistics for transmissions of either IPv4 or IPv6 packets.
$ netstat -f inet | inet6
To view IPv4 transmission information, type inet as the argument to netstat -f. Use inet6 as the argument to netstat -f to view IPv6 information.

Example 7–10 Status of IPv4 Packet Transmission

The following example shows output from the netstat -f inet command.

TCP: IPv4
   Local Address        Remote Address    Swind Send-Q Rwind Recv-Q  State
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ------ ----- ------ -------
host58.734         host19.nfsd       49640      0 49640      0 ESTABLISHED

host58.996         remote-host.login 49640      0 49206      0 ESTABLISHED

Example 7–11 Status of IPv6 Packet Transmission

The following example shows output from the netstat -f inet6 command.

TCP: IPv6
 Local Address          Remote Address        Swind Send-Q Rwind Recv-Q   State    If
