 llistat(ADM)                                                    llistat(ADM)

 Name

    llistat - display LLI driver statistics

 Syntax

    llistat  [-cls]
             [-device name]

 Description

    The llistat utility provides a standard method of displaying statistics:

    +  to verify your driver board's name and address

    +  to verify that your driver board is installed correctly

    +  to check for network problems

    llistat displays each driver board's name and address, the Multicast
    address table, the number of frames that have gone in and out, the number
    of frames with errors, and the number of collisions (if any).

    Here is sample output from llistat:

       Device       SNPA/MAC address    Factory Address
       /dev/e3B0    02:60:8c:3c:2f:4a   02:60:8c:3c:2f:4a
               Multicast address table
               Frames:      In      Out  Errs In  Err out Collisions
                        172999      750        0        0         10

    In this example, /dev/e3B0 in the Device column indicates the name of the
    lli device driver.  The 02:60:8c:3e:2f:4a in the SNPA/MAC address column
    indicates the address currently in use on the driver board.  The similar
    numbers in the Factory Address column indicates the built-in address
    assigned by the board manufacturers.  These two addresses are often the
    same.  The Multicast address table gives the multicast address in the
    same form.  In this example, the driver board is not using a multicast
    address and the table is empty.  The columns in the Frames row indicate
    the number of frames that have gone in and out of the board, the number
    of frames that have gone in and out with errors, and the number of colli-
    sions.  Frames that have collisions are resent.  You can expect to have a
    few errors, but you might have a network problem if a large percentage of
    frames have gone in and out with errors.

 Options

    -c             clear all statistics

    -l             display all available statistics, one statistic to a line

    -s             verifies the device name only

    -device name   allows you to specify a single device name.  If you do not
                   use this option and there is more than one lli device con-
                   figuration, llistat shows you the configuration for all of
                   the devices.
