It's in a project gate --- for the "netvirt" project. Instead, look at this one: http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/cmd/cmd-inet/usr.bin/netstat/netstat.c > Can anybody plz explain the mibget function provided in tis code the line > number is 654. explain the basic logic involved in detail n y is a linked > list of items used (mib_item_s) .plz help..this is urgent This function sends a T_OPTMGMT_REQ message (part of XTI/TLI) down to the TCP/IP stack. The stack responds by sending a message back that contains a great deal of information about how the system is being used. You can see more about the format of the responses in /usr/include/inet/mib2.h.
