How to Display Statistics by Protocol

The netstat -s option displays by protocol statistics for the UDP, TCP, ICMP, and IP protocols.

    On the command line, type the following command.


    % netstat -s

The result resembles the display that is shown in the following example. (Parts of the output have been truncated.) The information can indicate areas where a protocol is having problems. For example, statistical information from ICMP can indicate where this protocol has found errors. 


UDP
 
      udpInDatagrams      =  39228     udpOutDatagrams     =  2455  
      udpInErrors         =     0
 
TCP
 
      tcpRtoAlgorithm     =     4      tcpMaxConn          =    -1
      tcpRtoMax           = 60000      tcpPassiveOpens     =     2
      tcpActiveOpens      =     4      tcpEstabResets      =     1
      tcpAttemptFails     =     3      tcpOutSegs          =   315

IP
 
      ipForwarding        =     2      ipDefaultTTL        =   255
      ipInReceives        =  4518      ipInHdrErrors       =     0
			.

ICMP
 
      icmpInMsgs          =     0      icmpInErrors        =     0
      icmpInCksumErrs     =     0      icmpInUnknowns      =     0
