    NAME

    mii-diag - Network adapter control and monitoring
 

    SYNOPSIS

    mii-diag [options]<interface>  

    DESCRIPTION

    This manual page documents briefly the mii-diag network adapter control and monitoring command. Addition documentation is available from http://scyld.com/diag/index.html.

    This mii-diag command configures, controls and monitors the transceiver management registers for network interfaces, and configures driver operational parameters. For transceiver control mii-diag uses the Media Independent Interface (MII) standard (thus the command name). It also has additional Linux-specific controls to communicate parameters such as message enable settings and buffer sizes to the underlying device driver.

    The MII standard defines registers that control and report network transceiver capabilities, link settings and errors. Examples are link speed, duplex, capabilities advertised to the link partner, status LED indications and link error counters.

     

    OPTIONS

    The mii-diag command supports both single character and long option names. Short options use a single dash (б╢-б╢) in front of the option character. For options without parameters, multiple options may be concatenated after a single dash. Long options are prefixed by two dashes (б╢--б╢), and may be abbreviated with a unique prefix. A long option may take a parameter of the form --arg=param or --arg param.

    A summary of options is as follows.

    -A, --advertise <speed|setting>
    .B-F,--fixed-speed<speed|setting>

    Speed is one of: 100baseT4, 100baseTx, 100baseTx-FD, 100baseTx-HD, 10baseT, 10baseT-FD, 10baseT-HD. For more precise control an explict numeric register setting is also allowed.

    -a, --all-interfaces
    Show the status of all interfaces. This option is not recommended with any other option, especially ones that change settings.

    -s,--status
    Return exit status 2 if there is no link beat.

    -D
    Increase the debugging level. This may be used to understand the actions the command is taking.

    -g, --read-parameters
    Show driver-specific parameters.

    -G, --set-parameters value[,value...]
    Set driver-specific parameters. Set a adapter-specific parameters. Parameters are comma separated, with missing elements retaining the existing value.

    -v
    Increase the verbosity level. Additional "-v" options increase the level further.

    -V
    Show the program version information.

    -w, --watch
    Continuously monitor the transceiver and report changes.

    -?
    Emit usage information.

     

    DESCRIPTION

    Calling the command with just the interface name (which defaults to capabilities, configuration and current status.

    The '--monitor' option allows scripting link beat changes.

    This option is similar to --watch, but with lower overhead and simplifed output. It polls the interface only once a second and the output format is a single line per link change with three fixed words
      <unknown|down||negotiating|up> <STATUS> <PARTNER-CAP>

    Example output: mii-diag --monitor eth0
       down         0x7809 0x0000
       negotiating  0x7829 0x45e1
       up           0x782d 0x45e1
       down         0x7809 0x0000

    This may be used as
      mii-diag --monitor eth0 |
        while read linkstatus bmsr linkpar; do
         case $linkstatus in
            up)   ifup eth0 ;;
            down) ifdown eth0 ;;
         esac
        done

    It may be useful to shorten the DHCP client daemon timeout if it does not receive an address by adding the following setting to /etc/sysconfig/network: DHCPCDARGS="-t 3"

    KNOWN BUGS

    The --all-interfaces option is quirky. There are very few settings that are usefully applied to all interfaces.
