How to list all network cards installed in my Ubuntu using a single terminal command?
4 Answers
while the above works, there are other options with less typing.
ip link show or my favorite, netstat
netstat -i you can also use ifconfig and iwconfig for additional information or information about a specific device
ifconfig eth0 iwconfig wlp1s0 sort of depends on the sort of information you wish to display.
1You can use:
lspci lspci : will list all PCI devices
Now try this command:
lspci | egrep -i --color 'network|ethernet' The command will list network cards available and installed and highlight Ethernet if found .
If the cards are installed physically but not configured you can see them like this:
cat /proc/net/dev The following command provides detailed information about the hardware:
sudo lshw -class network This command will show you the current NetworkManager configuration:
nmcli
