>Description:
netstat(1) contains the following:
netstat -i | -I interface -s [-f protocol_family | -p protocol] [-M core]
[-N system]
Display per-interface statistics for each network protocol, for a
particular protocol_family, or for a single protocol.
however IPv4 (and maybe more, I dont know or how to find out,) does not support
per interface statistics.
>How-To-Repeat:
[root@zfstest ~]# netstat -i -s -f inet
[root@zfstest ~]#
>Fix:
possibly reword to something like.
netstat -i | -I interface -s [-f protocol_family | -p protocol] [-M core]
[-N system]
Display per-interface statistics for each network protocol, for a
particular protocol_family, or for a single protocol. Currently
this is only supported for inet6.
Otherwise maybe exclude rather than include, it depends what is supported as
leaving off the -f protocol_family only displays ip6 and icmp6 for me, but I
dont use or know much about pfkey atalk netgraph or ipx, so i cant test them
easily.
