How to Know The Speed of Network Interface Card (NIC) in Linux

Yesterday morning, i went to one of my site in Kuala Lumpur. I am doing my job in my client’s data centre. During that time, my client entered the data centre and asked me

“Azim, do you know how to check the speed of network interface card in Linux?”

I blanked.

“Let me google first”, I said to her. Thanks to this post by cyberciti.biz. Below is the command to check your NIC speed in Linux

# dmesg | grep -i duplex

And the output is

eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0×45E1
