Hi,

I am reposting this as I haven't yet received any responses.
I would appreciate it if you could mail me directly on
the current state of the sysctl interface or the dot3 
(ifmib_iso_8802_3) statistics.

Thanks.

[Re-post]

Hi,

I was wondering if any version of FreeBSD had an ioctl or
sysctl interface for collecting the dot3* (ethernet like) statistics 
from ethernet drivers (allingnment errors, collisions etc).

I am looking 2.2 code and man pages. The 'de' drivers seems to maintain 
the correct (RFC 1643/1650) statistics, but I can't find an interface which
exports these to user land in the man pages or in the code.

Anybody care to comment on the current or coming support? Or if it
already exists, how to access it (ie the ioctl or the sysctl parameters
or pointers to docs or code.)

Thanks in advance.

--rohit.

PS: I saw a message in the archives posing a similar question on Jan 4, 1997
    but no answers.
