Overview

The dev pseudo-file contains network device status information. This gives the number of received and sent pack‐ ets, the number of errors and collisions and other basic statistics. These are used by the ifconfig(8) program to report device status

various net pseudo-files, all of which give the status of some part of the networking layer. These files contain ASCII structures and are, therefore, readable with cat(1). However, the standard netstat(8) suite provides much cleaner access to these files.
