Kais, you misunderstood me. I meant that (1) bwm-ng can show statistics of physical links (2) bwm-ng can also show statistics of vnic , aggregation and vnic over aggregation .
the outputs were not empty . the outputs were "curses" format (like "dladm show-link -S"), so I could not copy the results to this email. You can try it too, my bwm-ng x86 executable file is available at : /net/ns-x4200-22.sfbay/var/tmp/pkg/proto/root_i386/usr/bin/bwm-ng Caijian ? 2009?03?13? 04:43, Kais Belgaied ??: > > Caijian, > > I guess you're saying that bwm-ng shows statistics about physical links. > only. > In that case how come the output of bwm-ng -I e1000g3 came out empty? > > Kais > > > On 03/12/09 00:05, caijian guo - Sun Microsystems - Beijing China wrote: >> Kais, >> >> I have tested that : >> Besides physical links, bwm-ng does be able to display the >> statistics of vnic , aggregation and vnic over aggregation. >> I used netperf to test. the throughput displayed by bwm-ng is the >> same as netperf. >> I tested it like so: >> # dladm create-vnic -l e1000g3 vnic1 >> # dladm create-aggr -l e1000g1 -l e1000g2 -L active aggr1 >> # dladm create-vnic -l aggr1 vnic2 >> # bwm-ng -I e1000g3 >> # bwm-ng -I vnic1 >> # bwm-ng -I vnic2 >> # bwm-ng -I aggr1 >> # bwm-ng >> >> >> Caijian >> >> ? 2009?03?12? 07:22, Kais Belgaied ??: >>> For networking devices, is the command expected to display the stats >>> of the physical links >>> (the list reported by dladm show-phys) or the network links (the >>> list reported by dladm show-link) ? >>> The lists may differ on Solaris when vnics or link aggregations are >>> present. >>> >>> Kais. >
