System Function Call (API) to display LAN Link status

I understand we can get the LAN status in landiag. But is there a system function (e.g. in C) to get the status (admin, HW and/or link) of a LAN interface?

Many many thanks.

Hi William,

Yes, you can get the lan statistics using the DLPI API interface.

Attached to this message is a program that I wrote, some years ago, to illustrate how to get the information.
