343 Extract values associated with the name list from the specified core
344 instead of the default
347 Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the default,
348 which is the kernel image the system has booted from.
350 Show network addresses and ports as numbers.
353 attempts to resolve addresses and ports,
354 and display them symbolically.
356 In certain displays, avoid truncating addresses even if this causes
357 some fields to overflow.
360 The default display, for active sockets, shows the local
361 and remote addresses, send and receive queue sizes (in bytes), protocol,
362 and the internal state of the protocol.
363 Address formats are of the form
367 if a socket's address specifies a network but no specific host address.
368 When known, the host and network addresses are displayed symbolically
369 according to the databases
374 If a symbolic name for an address is unknown, or if
377 option is specified, the address is printed numerically, according
378 to the address family.
379 For more information regarding
387 addresses and ports appear as
390 The interface display provides a table of cumulative
391 statistics regarding packets transferred, errors, and collisions.
392 The network addresses of the interface
393 and the maximum transmission unit
397 The routing table display indicates the available routes and their status.
398 Each route consists of a destination host or network, and a gateway to use
399 in forwarding packets.
400 The flags field shows a collection of information about the route stored
402 The individual flags are discussed in more detail in the

428 Direct routes are created for each
429 interface attached to the local host;
430 the gateway field for such entries shows the address of the outgoing interface.
431 The refcnt field gives the
432 current number of active uses of the route.
434 protocols normally hold on to a single route for the duration of
435 a connection while connectionless protocols obtain a route while sending
436 to the same destination.
437 The use field provides a count of the number of packets
438 sent using that route.
439 The interface entry indicates the network interface utilized for the route.
447 interval argument, it displays a running count of statistics related to
449 An obsolescent version of this option used a numeric parameter
450 with no option, and is currently supported for backward compatibility.
451 By default, this display summarizes information for all interfaces.
452 Information for a specific interface may be displayed with the
462 option represent the underlying parameters of the bpf peer.
464 represented as a single lower case letter.
465 The mapping between the letters and flags in order of appearance are:

469 .It Li f Ta Dv BIOCGHDRCMPLT No status: source link addresses are being

485 stored in the socket buffers.
