Today we will see how to find different properties of LAN or Network or NIC card in Linux. As a Linux user we should know about some network properties like network card name, speed's, driver details etc. We already covered some stuff related to hardware finding tools in our ongoing 'Know your hardware in Linux' series.

We are going to show you how to get different network card properties like

Let us start to find these details with examples so that it will be easy to understand. Note that most of the below commands should be run as root to get proper output.

Example 1: Find all your network cards(Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Wireless) names attached to a given system.

output:

Example 2 : find how many network connections(network cables are connected to your machine) are active i.e. link is up.

Output:

or

As a root user
