For me, dmesg shows:

tg3: eth0: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex.
tg3: eth0: Flow control is on for TX and on for RX.

Some NICs have various LEDs to show the link state - for example, an
LED will be green to show full duplex and amber to show half-duplex,
another would show the link speed and so on.

If you have access to the device at the other end, you could check
there too. On a Cisco switch, you can run "sh int giX/Y" to see what
the operational parameters of the interface are.

Lastly, you could use a bandwidth measurement tool like iperf to
convince yourself.
