Introduction

ethtool is the standard Linux utility for controlling network drivers and hardware, particularly for wired Ethernet devices. It can be used to:

• Get identification and diagnostic information
• Get extended device statistics
• Control speed, duplex, autonegotiation and flow control for Ethernet devices
• Control checksum offload and other hardware offload features
• Control DMA ring sizes and interrupt moderation
• Control receive queue selection for multiqueue devices
• Upgrade firmware in flash memory

Most features are dependent on support in the specific driver. See the manual page for full information.
