Then you had to get the link status:
Starting with the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet adapter in the Solarlis 9 operating
environment this method of determining the link status is discouraged, and in some
cases, it is removed completely as a driver feature.
The new improved approach moves all read-only parameters from the
ndd
options
into
kstat
. This simplifies getting link status information by allowing you to do it
with one simple command.
●
To get the link status of a driver, type the following command:
where n=instance.
For more information about the
kstat
command, refer the
kstat
man page

These statistics are part of the statistics presented by the
netstat -k
command.
