| === DESCRIPTION ===
| |
| ethtool is used to query and control network device driver and hardware settings, particularly for wired Ethernet devices.
| |
|
| |
| devname is the name of the network device on which ethtool should operate.
| |
|
| |
| === OPTIONS ===
| |
| ethtool with a single argument specifying the device name prints current settings of the specified device.
| |
|

| |
|
| |
| --version
| |
| Shows the ethtool version number.
| |
|
| |
| --debug N
| |
| Turns on debugging messages. Argument is interpreted as a mask:
| |
|
| |
| 0x01 Parser information
| |
|
| |
| --json Output results in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON). Only a subset of options support this. Those which do not will continue to output plain text in the pres‐
| |
| ence of this option.
| |
|
| |
| -I --include-statistics
| |
| Include command-related statistics in the output. This option allows displaying relevant device statistics for selected get commands.
| |
|
| |
| -a --show-pause
| |
| Queries the specified Ethernet device for pause parameter information.
| |
|
| |
| -A --pause
| |
| Changes the pause parameters of the specified Ethernet device.
| |
|
| |
| autoneg on|off
| |
| Specifies whether pause autonegotiation should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| rx on|off
| |
| Specifies whether RX pause should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| tx on|off
| |
| Specifies whether TX pause should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| -c --show-coalesce
| |
| Queries the specified network device for coalescing information.
| |
|
| |
| -C --coalesce
| |
| Changes the coalescing settings of the specified network device.
| |
|
| |
| -g --show-ring
| |
| Queries the specified network device for rx/tx ring parameter information.
| |
|
| |
| -G --set-ring
| |
| Changes the rx/tx ring parameters of the specified network device.
| |
|
| |
| rx N Changes the number of ring entries for the Rx ring.
| |
|
| |
| rx-mini N
| |
| Changes the number of ring entries for the Rx Mini ring.
| |
|
| |
| rx-jumbo N
| |
| Changes the number of ring entries for the Rx Jumbo ring.
| |
|
| |
| tx N Changes the number of ring entries for the Tx ring.
| |
|
| |

| |
| Changes the size of a buffer in the Rx ring.
| |
|
| |
| -i --driver
| |
| Queries the specified network device for associated driver information.
| |
|
| |
| -d --register-dump
| |
| Retrieves and prints a register dump for the specified network device. The register format for some devices is known and decoded others are printed in hex.
| |
| When raw is enabled, then ethtool dumps the raw register data to stdout. If file is specified, then use contents of previous raw register dump, rather than
| |
| reading from the device.
| |
|
| |
| -e --eeprom-dump
| |
| Retrieves and prints an EEPROM dump for the specified network device. When raw is enabled, then it dumps the raw EEPROM data to stdout. The length and offset
| |
| parameters allow dumping certain portions of the EEPROM. Default is to dump the entire EEPROM.
| |
|
| |
| raw on|off
| |
|
| |
| offset N
| |
|
| |
| length N
| |
|
| |
| -E --change-eeprom
| |
| If value is specified, changes EEPROM byte for the specified network device. offset and value specify which byte and it's new value. If value is not specified,
| |
| stdin is read and written to the EEPROM. The length and offset parameters allow writing to certain portions of the EEPROM. Because of the persistent nature of
| |
| writing to the EEPROM, a device-specific magic key must be specified to prevent the accidental writing to the EEPROM.
| |
|
| |
| -k --show-features --show-offload
| |
| Queries the specified network device for the state of protocol offload and other features.
| |
|
| |
| -K --features --offload
| |
| Changes the offload parameters and other features of the specified network device. The following feature names are built-in and others may be defined by the
| |
| kernel.
| |
|
| |
| rx on|off
| |
| Specifies whether RX checksumming should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| tx on|off
| |
| Specifies whether TX checksumming should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| sg on|off
| |
| Specifies whether scatter-gather should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| tso on|off
| |
| Specifies whether TCP segmentation offload should be enabled.
| |
|
| |
| ufo on|off
| |
| Specifies whether UDP fragmentation offload should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| gso on|off
| |
| Specifies whether generic segmentation offload should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| gro on|off
| |
| Specifies whether generic receive offload should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| lro on|off

| Specifies whether large receive offload should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| rxvlan on|off
| |
| Specifies whether RX VLAN acceleration should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| txvlan on|off
| |
| Specifies whether TX VLAN acceleration should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| ntuple on|off
| |
| Specifies whether Rx ntuple filters and actions should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| rxhash on|off
| |
| Specifies whether receive hashing offload should be enabled
| |
|
| |
| -p --identify
| |
| Initiates adapter-specific action intended to enable an operator to easily identify the adapter by sight. Typically this involves blinking one or more LEDs on
| |
| the specific network port.
| |
|
| |
| [ N] Length of time to perform phys-id, in seconds.
| |
|
| |
| -P --show-permaddr
| |
| Queries the specified network device for permanent hardware address.
| |
|
| |
| -r --negotiate
| |
| Restarts auto-negotiation on the specified Ethernet device, if auto-negotiation is enabled.
| |
|
| |
| -S --statistics
| |
| Queries the specified network device for standard (IEEE, IETF, etc.), or NIC- and driver-specific statistics. NIC- and driver-specific statistics are requested
| |
| when no group of statistics is specified.
| |
|
| |
| NIC- and driver-specific statistics and standard statistics are independent, devices may implement either, both or none. There is little commonality between
| |
| naming of NIC- and driver-specific statistics across vendors.
| |
|
| |
| --all-groups
| |
|
| |
| --groups [eth-phy] [eth-mac] [eth-ctrl] [rmon]
| |
| Request groups of standard device statistics.
| |
|
| |
| --phy-statistics
| |
| Queries the specified network device for PHY specific statistics.
| |
|
| |
| -t --test
| |
| Executes adapter selftest on the specified network device. Possible test modes are:
| |
|
| |
| offline
| |
| Perform full set of tests, possibly interrupting normal operation during the tests,
| |
|
| |
| online Perform limited set of tests, not interrupting normal operation,
| |
|
| |
| external_lb
| |
| Perform full set of tests, as for offline, and additionally an external-loopback test.
| |
|
| |
| -s --change
| |
| Allows changing some or all settings of the specified network device. All following options only apply if -s was specified.
| |
|
| |
| speed N
| |
| Set speed in Mb/s. ethtool with just the device name as an argument will show you the supported device speeds.
| |
|
| |
| lanes N
| |
| Set number of lanes.
| |
|
| |
| duplex half|full
| |
| Sets full or half duplex mode.
| |
|
| |
| port tp|aui|bnc|mii
| |
| Selects device port.
| |
|
| |
| master-slave preferred-master|preferred-slave|forced-master|forced-slave
| |
| Configure MASTER/SLAVE role of the PHY. When the PHY is configured as MASTER, the PMA Transmit function shall source TX_TCLK from a local clock source. When
| |
| configured as SLAVE, the PMA Transmit function shall source TX_TCLK from the clock recovered from data stream provided by MASTER. Not all devices support
| |
| this.
| |
|
| |
| preferred-master Prefer MASTER role on autonegotiation
| |
| preferred-slave Prefer SLAVE role on autonegotiation
| |
| forced-master Force the PHY in MASTER role. Can be used without autonegotiation
| |
| forced-slave Force the PHY in SLAVE role. Can be used without autonegotiation
| |
|
| |
| mdix auto|on|off
| |
| Selects MDI-X mode for port. May be used to override the automatic detection feature of most adapters. An argument of auto means automatic detection of MDI
| |
| status, on forces MDI-X (crossover) mode, while off means MDI (straight through) mode. The driver should guarantee that this command takes effect immedi‐
| |
| ately, and if necessary may reset the link to cause the change to take effect.
| |
|
| |
| autoneg on|off
| |
| Specifies whether autonegotiation should be enabled. Autonegotiation is enabled by default, but in some network devices may have trouble with it, so you can
| |
| disable it if really necessary.
| |
|
| |
| advertise N
| |
| Sets the speed and duplex advertised by autonegotiation. The argument is a hexadecimal value using one or a combination of the following values:
| |
|

| |
| Gets the PHY downshift count/status.
| |
|
| |
| fast-link-down
| |
| Depending on the mode it may take 0.5s - 1s until a broken link is reported as down. In certain use cases a link-down event needs to be reported as soon as

| pairs can be reported, along with pairs being O.K. When a fault is detected the approximate distance to the fault may be reported.
| |
|
| |
| --cable-test-tdr
| |
| Perform a cable test and report the raw Time Domain Reflectometer data. A pulse is sent down a cable pair and the amplitude of the reflection, for a given dis‐
| |
| tance, is reported. A break in the cable returns a big reflection. Minor damage to the cable returns a small reflection. If the cable is shorted, the amplitude
| |
| of the reflection can be negative. By default, data is returned for lengths between 0 and 150m at 1m steps, for all pairs. However parameters can be passed to
| |
| restrict the collection of data. It should be noted, that the interface will round the distances to whatever granularity is actually implemented. This is often
| |
| 0.8 of a meter. The results should include the actual rounded first and last distance and step size.
| |
|
| |
| first N
| |
| Distance along the cable, in meters, where the first measurement should be made.

| |
|
| |
| --set-module
| |
| Set the transceiver module's parameters.
| |
|
| |
| power-mode-policy high|auto
| |
| Set the power mode policy for the module. When set to high, the module always operates at high power mode. When set to auto, the module is transitioned by
| |
| the host to high power mode when the first port using it is put administratively up and to low power mode when the last port using it is put administrative‐
| |
| ly down. The power mode policy can be set before a module is plugged-in.

ethtool - Konfigurations- und Diagnosewerkzeug für kabelgebundene Netzwerkkarten
Beschreibung
- Einstellmöglichkeiten sind umfangreich
- je nach Netzwerk-Hardware und Treibermodul
- Nicht alle Konfigurationsmöglichkeiten können mit jedem Gerät umgesetzt werden
- Optimale Performance
- Netzwerkkarte optimal konfigurieren
Grundlagen
- In der Regel funktioniert eine Verbindung im Ethernet ohne weitere Konfiguration.
- Um die verfügbare Bandbreite aber optimal auszunutzen, gilt es einige Grundregeln zu beachten.
- Die Duplexeinstellungen müssen bei beiden Linkpartner gleich sein.
- Also entweder beide Seiten eines Link auf Autonegotiation oder beide Seiten fest auf die selben Parameter einstellen.
- Viele SOHO-Switche (Small Office, Home Office) bieten keine Einstellmöglichkeiten und arbeiten immer mit Autonegotiation.
- Die Netzwerkkarten der angeschlossenen Clients müssen also auch auf Auto stehen.
- Unter Linux leistet ethtool dabei gute Dienste.
Aktuelle Netzwerkkarten erkennen automatisch die möglichen Einstellungen und verbinden sich zur Gegenstelle, wie einen Netzwerk-Router oder einem Netzwerk-Switch, mit der bestmöglichen Geschwindigkeit.
- Die Konfiguration erfolgt über die sog. Autonegotiation-Funktion.
- Dazu werden die Einstellungen über ein bestimmtes Verfahren automatisch zwischen den Endgeräten ausgehandelt. Ältere Ethernet-Karten (10Base-T) verwenden das Normal-Link-Pulse-Verfahren (NLP), Fast-Ethernet (10/100MBit/s) und schnellere Karten das Fast-Link-Pulse-Verfahren (FLP).
- Die Pulse werden in regelmäßigen Abständen von einigen Millisekunden gesendet.
Durch beschädigte Kabel oder Anschlussstecker kann es trotz gelungener Verbindung dennoch zu Übertragungsfehlern kommen.
- Eine Beschädigung oder ein Bruch des Netzwerkkabels muss nicht zwingend von außen sichtbar sein.
- Ein Kabelbruch verhindert z. B.
- eine gleichzeitige Übertragung der Daten in beide Richtungen (Duplex).
- Quetschungen beeinflussen, je nach Qualität und Ausführung des Kabels, die sog.
- Durchgangsdämpfung stark und somit auch die Übertragung bzw.
- Signalqualität.
- Die Synchronisation zwischen zwei Netzwerkgeräten kann scheitern oder es kommt vermehrt zu Übertragungsfehlern.
Korrodierte Kontakte bei billigen Steckverbindern der Kabel oder der Netzwerkkarte sorgen ebenfalls für Verbindungsprobleme.
- Ein Austausch der Stecker, Kabel oder Reinigung der Kontaktflächen schafft Abhilfe.
Können durch Austausch der Kabel und einen Wechsel der verwendeten Anschlüsse am verwendeten Router oder Netzwerk-Switch Fehler ausgeschlossen werden, so ist ein Treiber- oder Konfigurationsproblem, sowie ein Defekt der Netzwerk-Karte natürlich ebenfalls möglich.
ethtool bietet hier über Terminal [2] die Möglichkeit einer Fehlerdiagnose sowie verschiedene Einstellungen der Netzwerkkarte anzupassen und zu testen.

Diagnose und Konfiguration
Die in den Beispielen verwendete Schnittstelle eth0 ist durch die Bezeichnung der tatsächlich verwendeten Netzwerkkarte zu ersetzen.
- ethtool muss in den meisten Fällen mit Root-Rechten [3] gestartet werden, um Abfragen zu ermöglichen oder Einstellungen ändern zu können.
- Hinweis
Viele Karten akzeptieren Einstellungsänderungen oft nur in Kombination unter Angabe der Parameter für Autonegotiation und Übertragungsmodus.
- Geschwindigkeit auf 100 MBit/s festlegen
# ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on
- Hinweis
Möchte man bestimmte Einstellungen der Karte schon bei Systemstart festlegen, kann die benötigte Befehlszeile in das Startskript rc.local eingetragen werden.
Datenübertragung und Fehlerabfrage
Neben der Standardabfrage mit ifconfig liefert ethtool eine detailliertere Auswertung und Anzeige bei eventuell auftretenden Übertragungsfehlern.

MDI-X
MDI-X (Medium Dependent Interface/ X = Crossover) bezeichnet ein Verfahren zur automatischen Anschlusserkennung und des verwendeten Kabeltyps.
- So können bei einer Direktverbindung zweier Rechner normale Patchkabel oder gekreuzte Kabel (Crosslink-Kabel) verwendet werden.
- Alle Gigabit Ethernet-Karten und einige Fast-Ethernet-Karten unterstützen diese Funktion.
- Einstellungen können hierzu nicht geändert werden.
- Wird diese Option bei Abfrage der Konfiguration nicht angezeigt, unterstützt die verwendete Karte diese Funktion sehr wahrscheinlich nicht.
- Siehe dazu auch PC-Direktverbindung per Netzwerk-Kabel.
Erweiterte Einstellungen
Adaptererkennung
Zur besseren Erkennung einzelner Karten und des zugehörigen Anschlusses kann man die Verbindungs-LED, sofern vorhanden, für eine vorgegebene Zeit blinken lassen.
- Das ist z. B. in Serversystemen mit mehreren Netzwerkkarten hilfreich.
# ethtool -p eth0 10
Hier blinkt die Anzeige für zehn Sekunden.

Zur Anzeige der aktuellen Parameter wird ethtool mit dem entsprechenden Interface als Parameter aufgerufen. Hier die Ausgabe für das Interface eth0:
~ $ ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ TP MII ]
Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full

Diese Netzwerkkarte unterstützt 10 und 100 MBit/s jeweils mit Halb- und Vollduplex. Die letzte Zeile der Ausgabe zeigt uns an, dass kein Link erkannt wurde. Zum Vergleich hier ein Aufruf von ethtool bei aktiver Verbindung zu einem Switch der Autonegotiation unterstützt:
~ $ ethtool eth0

Mit ethtool ist es auch möglich, Einstellungen der Netzwerkkarte zu verändern. Das folgende Kommando stellt das Interface eth0 auf 10 MBit/s und Halbduplex ein.
~ $ ethtool -s eth0 speed 10 duplex half
[mirko]
Für Speed sind die Parameter 10, 100 und 1000 erlaubt. Der Duplexmode kann auf "half" oder "full" eingestellt werden. Autonegotiation wird mit dem Paramter "autoneg on" angeschaltet und mit "autoneg off" abgeschaltet.
~ $ ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on
[mirko]
Neuere Netzwerkkarten haben mitunter die Möglichkeit, eine LED manuell blinkne zu lassen. Das ist zum Identifizieren einer Karte in komplexen Umgebungen sehr hilfreich. Ethtool startet man dazu mit dem Parameter "-p".
~ $ ethtool -p eth1
[mirko]
Für Netzwerkinterfaces die WakeOnLAN (WOL) beherrschen, bietet ethtool auch einige Möglichkeiten der Konfiguration. Der Benutzer kann festlegen welche Art von Frame ein Aufwachen auslösen soll und ein Kennwort für Wake On LAN festlegen.
wol p|u|m|b|a|g|s|d...
Set Wake-on-LAN options. Not all devices support this. The
argument to this option is a string of characters specifying
which options to enable.
p Wake on phy activity
u Wake on unicast messages
m Wake on multicast messages
b Wake on broadcast messages
a Wake on ARP
g Wake on MagicPacket(tm)
s Enable SecureOn(tm) password for MagicPacket(tm)
d Disable (wake on nothing). This option clears all previous
options.
sopass xx:yy:zz:aa:bb:cc
Set the SecureOn(tm) password. The argument to this option must
be 6 bytes in ethernet MAC hex format (xx:yy:zz:aa:bb:cc).
Leider arbeiten nicht alle Treiber mit ethtool zusammen.

TMP
Ein divenhaft zickendes LAN vergällt Admins nicht nur den Arbeitstag. Nein, auch zu Hause sorgen falsch ausgehandelte Ethernets für Verdruss. Doch wie in Hollywood naht Rettung in letzter Sekunde.
Murphy nahm vor ein paar Tagen denselben Bus wie ich und ließ sich, anfangs unbemerkt, in meiner Wohnung nieder. Als ich mein Notebook hochfuhr, schlug er hinterrücks zu. Mein harmloser Plan: Ich wollte mir nur im Arbeitszimmer das gerade laufende Fernsehprogramm per Streaming anschauen.
Im Wohnzimmer steht dazu ein VDR [1], die Verbindung zwischen beiden schafft mein sehr gepflegtes heimischen Netz [2]. Doch die Enttäuschung war groß, als jeder Film mit Breakdancern besetzt zu sein schien, so ruckelte das Ganze.
Hardware prima, Video unbrauchbar
Die (etwas längliche) Diagnose der Netzwerkhardware brachte nichts. Auf meinem Switch gab es nichts zu diagnostizieren, da er ein dummes Gerät ohne Managementfunktionen ist. Am Ende verhalf mir Ethtool [3] zur filmreifen Erkenntnis: Das automatische Aushandeln der Übertragungsparameter zwischen Switch und Gigabit-Port des Notebooks, die Auto-Negotiation, hat versagt. Nicht nur, dass lediglich 100 MBit/s statt des Zehnfachen anlagen, es war auch verständlicherweise auf Halbduplex eingestellt (siehe Abbildung 1). Kein Wunder, dass der Datenfluss schneckig wirkte.
Abbildung 1: Ethtool findet heraus, dass trotz erfüllter Voraussetzungen keine Gigabit-LAN-Verbindung mit Vollduplex zustande kommt.
Fehler bei der Auto-Negotiation sind eine klassische Domäne für Murphy. Sie passieren oft genug, um zu nerven, aber nicht so häufig, dass man bei der Diagnose gerade daran zuerst denkt. Manchmal lässt sich das Malheur schon durch erneutes Auslösen der Autoneg beheben (sprich: Kabel raus, Kabel rein), manchmal nicht. Netzwerker berichten von Situationen, in denen sie zehn Netzwerkkarten desselben Herstellers, sogar aus einer Charge, an denselben Switch hängten – bei sieben funktioniert die Autoneg, bei dreien nicht.
Perfide ist, dass erst einmal alles zu klappen scheint. Das Link-Lämpchen leuchtet, auf Pings kommen prompte Antworten. Alles klar. Bis der Erste versucht größere Datenmengen über das Interface zu schieben. Mit etwas Glück fällt gleich bei »ifconfig« der muntere Kollisionszähler auf. Kollisionen sollte es in einem geswitchten Netz überhaupt nicht geben. Andernfalls ist mit höchster Wahrscheinlichkeit eine Halbduplex-Verbindung im Spiel.
Reparaturbetrieb
Glücklicherweise kann Ethtool derartige Missstände nicht nur diagnostizieren, sondern auch beheben. Denn das Kommando »ethtool -r eth0« startet die Auto-Negotiation erneut. Das ist eleganter, als das Netzwerkkabel zu ziehen, und ohnehin die einzige Möglichkeit, wenn kein physikalischer Zugriff auf die Hardware möglich ist. Mein Vertrauen in die Autoneg hat sich jedoch inzwischen vollständig verflüchtigt. Darum stelle ich mit
ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off
lieber die Werte hart ein. Wer (im Gegensatz zu mir) einen Managed Switch hat, tut gut daran, die Werte auch dort fest zu verdrahten.
Ethtool ist noch für einige Spielereien zu haben. So vermag es die WOL-Einstellungen (Wake on LAN) präzise zu steuern; die Programmdokumentation weiß Näheres. Bedeutsamer ist eine Funktion, die auf den ersten Blick wie ein ebenso nettes wie nutzloses Gimmick aussieht. Das Kommando »ethtool -p eth0« bringt die Netzwerkkarte dazu, rhythmisch mit ihren LEDs zu blinken. Wer schon einmal vor einem Server mit acht NICs stand und herauszufinden versuchte, welche davon »eth0« ist, lernt dieses Feature schätzen. Einen ungestörten Fernsehabend kann eine blinkende LED freilich nicht ersetzen. (jk)
