grep "ˆ" /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/*;

for i in ` ifconfig -a | egrep "^eth|^ _temp" | awk '{print $1}'` ; do echo "; --- $i;"; ethtool $i > /nzscratch/ethtool.txt;ethtool -i $i >> /nzscratch/ethtool.txt; ethtool -k $i >> /nzscratch/ethtool.txt; ethtool -g $i >>/nzscratch/ethtool.txt; ethtool -S $i >>/nzscratch/ethtool.txt;echo;done
