ATNETSTAT (1M) ATNETSTAT

NAME

atnetstat - show AppleTalk network status

SYNOPSIS

atnetstat -<i⎪r⎪z>[-nv]

one of -i,-r, or -zis required

DESCRIPTION

The atnetstat command displays the contents of AppleTalk network-related data structures to show the status of configured interfaces and routing tables known to the kernel-level Datagram Delivery Protocol (DDP) routing module, and of zone lists known to the atmgr process.

The interface (-i) option displays the status of the configured network interfaces and remote virtual connections. The configured network interfaces are of the type ETHERNET (configured automatically by the atalkif process) and of the type VIR- TUAL (configured by the atmgr process) using the data provided by the atalkas command. Remote virtual connections are of the type PPP and ARAP and use the VIRTUAL AppleTalk network. The -ioption displays:

address	the address of the interface, expressed as the network number
	and node (net.node).
range	the range of network numbers that have been assigned to the link
	used by the interface, expressed as (net_low:net_high).
interface type configured (ETHERNET, VIRTUAL) or remote (PPP, ARAP).
Ipkts	the number of DDP packets received by the router from this
	interface. Packets are not received over a VIRTUAL interface,
	hence for a VIRTUAL interface, Ipkts is N/A.
Opkts	the number of DDP packets transmitted from the router through
	this interface. Packets are not transmitted over a VIRTUAL inter-
	face, hence for a VIRTUAL interface, Opkts is N/A.

In general, Ipkts will not equal Opkts. This is true because:

1. many routing protocol Ipkts terminate within the router and are not rebroadcast

2. many routing protocol Opkts are either generated within the router or are replicated within the router for transmission over each of the router's real and virtual interfaces.

The routing table (-r) option displays known AppleTalk routes. The -roption displays:

Destination the network range to which the route points, in the form net_low:net_high
