    Hi,

    You mean bandwidth or link-speed??
    If link-speed, what Unix-flavour? I know, with Sun Solaris you can use:

    /usr/sbin/ndd -set <device class> instance <instance number>
    /usr/sbin/ndd <device class> link_speed
    /usr/sbin/ndd <device class> link_mode

    link_speed will return 0 for 10mbit and 1 for 100mbit
    link_mode will return 0 for half duplex and 1 for full duplex

    Example: if you want the speed for /dev/hme2, you issue:

    /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/hme instance 2
    /usr/sbin/ndd /dev/hme link_speed

    Regards,
    Eddie
