>Description:
netstat -s shows many things, including:
tcp:
2010897 packets sent
1663069 data packets (2055119677 bytes)
169 data packets (68807 bytes) retransmitted
278990 ack-only packets (390952 delayed)
0 URG only packets
0 window probe packets
67642 window update packets
1037 control packets
0 send attempts resulted in self-quench
1465088 packets received
902007 acks (for 2055103899 bytes)
1568 duplicate acks
0 acks for unsent data
514200 packets (394472826 bytes) received in-sequence
for some reason, it doesn't count packets from pppoe0. on the other hand, netstat -b -I pppoe0 works fine
netstat -b -I pppoe0
Name Mtu Network Address Ibytes Obytes
pppoe 1492 <Link> 1011411416 52967289
pppoe 1492 fe80:: fe80::xxx:xxxx:xx 1011411416 52967289
pppoe 1492 x.x.x.x x.x.x.x 1011411416 52967289
>How-To-Repeat:
establish a pppoe link
minimize other networking use
use the pppoe link and monitor netstat -s
compare to monitoring netstat -b -I pppoe0
