NAME

       sg_get_network_iface_stats - get network interface statistics

SYNOPSIS

       #include <statgrab.h>

       sg_network_iface_stats *sg_get_network_iface_stats(int *entries);

DESCRIPTION

       The  sg_get_network_iface_stats	function  takes  a  pointer  to an int, entries, which is filled with the number of network interfaces the
       machine has. This is needed to know how many sg_network_iface_stats structures have been returned. A  pointer  is  returned  to	the  first
       sg_network_iface_stats.

       sg_get_network_iface_stats returns statistics about the network interfaces in the machine. Specifically, it returns the speed of the inter-
       face, the duplex state, and whether it is currently up.

RETURN VALUES

       The sg_get_network_iface_stats returns a pointer to a structure of type sg_network_iface_stats.

       typedef enum{
	       SG_IFACE_DUPLEX_FULL,
	       SG_IFACE_DUPLEX_HALF,
	       SG_IFACE_DUPLEX_UNKNOWN
       }sg_iface_duplex;

       Note: The SG_IFACE_DUPLEX_UNKNOWN value could mean that duplex hasn't been negotiated yet.

       typedef struct{
	       char *interface_name;
	       int speed;
	       sg_iface_duplex duplex;
	       int up;
       }sg_network_iface_stats;

       interface_name
	      The name known to the operating system.  (eg. on linux it might be eth0)

       speed  The speed of the interface, in megabits/sec.

       duplex The duplex state the interface is in. See sg_iface_duplex for permitted values.

       up     Whether the interface is up.
