- autoneg on|off
Specifies whether pause autonegotiation should be enabled.
- rx on|off
Specifies whether RX pause should be enabled.
- tx on|off
Specifies whether TX pause should be enabled.
- -c --show-coalesce
Queries the specified network device for coalescing information.
- -C --coalesce

- -i --driver
Queries the specified network device for associated driver information.
- -d --register-dump
Retrieves and prints a register dump for the specified network device. The register format for some devices is known and decoded others are printed in hex. When raw is enabled, then ethtool dumps the raw register data to stdout. If file is specified, then use contents of previous raw register dump, rather than reading from the device.
- -e --eeprom-dump
-
Retrieves and prints an EEPROM dump for the specified network device. When raw is enabled, then it dumps the raw EEPROM data to stdout. The length and offset parameters allow dumping certain portions of the EEPROM. Default is to dump the entire EEPROM.
raw on|off
offset N
length N
- -E --change-eeprom
If value is specified, changes EEPROM byte for the specified network device. offset and value specify which byte and it's new value. If value is not specified, stdin is read and written to the EEPROM. The length and offset parameters allow writing to certain portions of the EEPROM. Because of the persistent nature of writing to the EEPROM, a device-specific magic key must be specified to prevent the accidental writing to the EEPROM.
- -k --show-features --show-offload
Queries the specified network device for the state of protocol offload and other features.
- -K --features --offload
-
Changes the offload parameters and other features of the specified network device. The following feature names are built-in and others may be defined by the kernel.

- mdix auto|on|off
Selects MDI-X mode for port. May be used to override the automatic detection feature of most adapters. An argument of auto means automatic detection of MDI status, on forces MDI-X (crossover) mode, while off means MDI (straight through) mode. The driver should guarantee that this command takes effect immediately, and if necessary may reset the link to cause the change to take effect.
