372Normally
373.Nm
374attempts to resolve addresses and ports,

376.It Fl W
377In certain displays, avoid truncating addresses even if this causes

379.El
380.Pp
381The default display, for active sockets, shows the local
382and remote addresses, send and receive queue sizes (in bytes), protocol,
383and the internal state of the protocol.
384Address formats are of the form
385.Dq host.port
386or
387.Dq network.port
388if a socket's address specifies a network but no specific host address.
389When known, the host and network addresses are displayed symbolically
390according to the databases
391.Xr hosts 5
392and
393.Xr networks 5 ,
394respectively.
395If a symbolic name for an address is unknown, or if
396the
397.Fl n
398option is specified, the address is printed numerically, according
399to the address family.
400For more information regarding
401the Internet IPv4
402.Dq dot format ,
403refer to
404.Xr inet 3 .
405Unspecified,
406or
407.Dq wildcard ,
408addresses and ports appear as
409.Dq Li * .
410.Pp
411The interface display provides a table of cumulative
412statistics regarding packets transferred, errors, and collisions.
413The network addresses of the interface
414and the maximum transmission unit
415.Pq Dq mtu
416are also displayed.
417.Pp
418The routing table display indicates the available routes and their status.
419Each route consists of a destination host or network, and a gateway to use
420in forwarding packets.
421The flags field shows a collection of information about the route stored
422as binary choices.
423The individual flags are discussed in more detail in the
424.Xr route 8
425and
426.Xr route 4
427manual pages.
428The mapping between letters and flags is:
429.Bl -column ".Li W" ".Dv RTF_WASCLONED"
430.It Li 1 Ta Dv RTF_PROTO1 Ta "Protocol specific routing flag #1"
431.It Li 2 Ta Dv RTF_PROTO2 Ta "Protocol specific routing flag #2"

445.It Li W Ta Dv RTF_WASCLONED Ta "Route was generated as a result of cloning"
446.It Li X Ta Dv RTF_XRESOLVE Ta "External daemon translates proto to link address"
447.El
448.Pp
449Direct routes are created for each
450interface attached to the local host;
451the gateway field for such entries shows the address of the outgoing interface.
452The refcnt field gives the
453current number of active uses of the route.
454Connection oriented
455protocols normally hold on to a single route for the duration of
456a connection while connectionless protocols obtain a route while sending
457to the same destination.
458The use field provides a count of the number of packets
459sent using that route.
460The interface entry indicates the network interface utilized for the route.
461.Pp
462When
463.Nm
464is invoked with the
465.Fl w
466option and a
467.Ar wait
468interval argument, it displays a running count of statistics related to
469network interfaces.
470An obsolescent version of this option used a numeric parameter
471with no option, and is currently supported for backward compatibility.
472By default, this display summarizes information for all interfaces.
473Information for a specific interface may be displayed with the
474.Fl I
475option.
476.Pp
477The
478.Xr bpf 4
479flags displayed when
480.Nm
481is invoked with the
482.Fl B
483option represent the underlying parameters of the bpf peer.
484Each flag is
485represented as a single lower case letter.
486The mapping between the letters and flags in order of appearance are:
487.Bl -column ".Li i"
488.It Li p Ta Set if listening promiscuously
489.It Li i Ta Dv BIOCIMMEDIATE No has been set on the device
490.It Li f Ta Dv BIOCGHDRCMPLT No status: source link addresses are being

494.It Li a Ta Packet reception generates a signal
495.It Li l Ta Dv BIOCLOCK No status: descriptor has been locked
496.El
497.Pp
498For more information about these flags, please refer to
499.Xr bpf 4 .
500.Pp
501The
502.Fl x
503flag causes
504.Nm
505to output all the information recorded about data
506stored in the socket buffers.
507The fields are:
508.Bl -column ".Li R-MBUF"
509.It Li R-MBUF Ta Number of mbufs in the receive queue.
510.It Li S-MBUF Ta Number of mbufs in the send queue.
