You could try (though I didn't test for all the interfaces):
# grep -E your_interface_expression /var/adm/messages | grep selecting | tail -some_number
For instance:
# grep -E 'tu[0-1]|ee[0-1]' /var/adm/messages | grep selecting | tail -4
Now you just have to decode the speed types. Here are examples of
what you might see:
selecting 10Base2 (BNC) port == 10Base2 is BNC (Thin)
selecting 10Base5 (AUI) port == 10Base5 is AUI (Thick)
selecting 10BaseT (UTP) port: half duplex == 10BaseT is Twisted-Pair
>From the console:
P00>>>set ewa0_mode
bad value - valid selections:
Twisted-Pair
Full Duplex, Twisted-Pair <== 10BaseT/Twisted-pair
AUI <== Thick
BNC <== Thin
Fast
FastFD (Full Duplex)
Auto-Negotiate

Phil

Greetings,
A very basic question here: how can you get the current speed and metrics
for an Ethernet interface by command line on True64 4.0f ? Ifconfig does not display. I saw a reply for 5.1a (below), but I need to do this on 4.0f.
Thanks.

God, that was fast :-)
The command as noted by 5 persons is:
# hwmgr -get attr -cat network -a name -a media_speed -a full_duplex
