do you mean buffers in use by the networking stack? on 10.20 and prior you can look at netstat -m and it will show mbufs. i do not remember if it was enhanced in 11.X to show mblks when the "BSD->Streams" transition was made.

networking in hp-ux competes for RAM with/just like everything else in the kernel. it does not require configuring.

was there a particular concern that led you to want to see the data, or was it simply curiousity?

Hi Marcelo,

Try :
netstat -s

Rick, i have the following problem with buffer :

> # define ENOBUFS 233 /* No buffer space available */

and then I need a measure the buffer of TCP.
