I need to figure out the size of the packets on solaris OS. When I run this command:

netstat -in

I get this output in terms of number of packets:

 netstat -in
Ipkts Ierrs    Opkts Oerrs  Coll
2450315175     0 1850696874     0     0
2450315175     0 1850696874     0     0
2450315175     0 1850696874     0     0
2450315175     0 1850696874     0     0
2450315175     0 1850696874     0     0
2450315175     0 1850696874     0     0

Does anybody know the size of the packets in terms of bits/bytes?

Answer 1

netstat doesn't report the packets size.

You can use kstat to retrieve both the number of packets and bytes sent and received in deduce the average packet size.
