nwmgr
The command without any arguments displays all the network interfaces in the system, including
physical LAN interfaces (NICs), virtual LAN interfaces (VLANs and APA aggregates), and RDMA-
based interfaces.

nwmgr [-g][-v][
-c lanPPA | -S ixgbe]
nwmgr [--get][--verbose][
--class_instance lan
PPA | --subsystem ixgbe]
The form without the verbose option displays a table, with one row for each interface that gets
listed. If an interface is specified as a target with the
-c option, only that interface gets displayed.
If the
-S option is specified, all
ixgbe interfaces are displayed. The properties displayed for each
interface are explained in nwmgr(1M). Note that the get operation is the default, so the
-g option
need not be specified explicitly.
The verbose option changes the output to include more details about each interface that is
displayed, and also changes the format to be line-oriented, with each line describing one property.
The additional properties displayed for each interface include not only those described in
nwmgr(1M) but also the speed and duplex of the interface. More details can be found in the Attri-
butes section.

nwmgr [-g] --st [mib | extmib | subsys | all] -c lanPPA
nwmgr [--get] --stats [mib | extmib | subsys | all]
--class_instance lan
PPA
The
--stats option can take zero or more of the following arguments:
mib The MIB statistics of the interface are displayed. This is the default if no argument is
provided to --stats.
extmib The extended MIB statistics are displayed. This overrides the mib argument, if present.
subsys Displays the subsystem-specific statistics, which can vary from one driver to another.
all Displays both extended MIB statistics and subsystem-specific statistics, in other words, it
is equivalent to extmib,subsys
. It overrides any other arguments that may be
present.
It is possible to give more than one argument to the
--stats option, as a comma-separated list.
For example, --stats mib,subsys displays both the specified sets of statistics.
View Interface Attributes
nwmgr [-g] -A {all | attr1, attr2, ...} -c lanPPA
nwmgr [--get] --attribute {all | attr1, attr2, ...} --class_instance lanPPA
These commands display the current value of either all the attributes of the interface (when the
all keyword is specified) or the specified attributes (when they are listed by name). Each attribute
is listed on a separate line as a name-value pair.

nwmgr [-g] -q info -c lanPPA
nwmgr [--get] --subsystem_qualifier info --class_instance lan
PPA
This form displays interface-specific properties that are informational, often not configurable and
subject to variation across drivers. It first displays the verbose listing for the interface (same as
what is shown by
nwmgr -g -v -c lanPPA). It then displays PCI-related properties such as
the PCI Device ID. It also displays the current driver state for the specified interface.
