-.TH proc_pid_net 5 (date) "Linux man-pages (unreleased)"
-.SH NAME
-/proc/pid/net/, /proc/net/ \- network layer information
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.TP
-.IR /proc/ pid /net/ " (since Linux 2.6.25)"
-See the description of
-.IR /proc/net .
-.TP
-.I /proc/net/
-This directory contains various files and subdirectories containing
-information about the networking layer.
-The files contain ASCII structures and are,
-therefore, readable with
-.BR cat (1).
-However, the standard
-.BR netstat (8)
-suite provides much cleaner access to these files.
-.IP
-With the advent of network namespaces,
-various information relating to the network stack is virtualized (see
-.BR network_namespaces (7)).
-Thus, since Linux 2.6.25,
-.\" commit e9720acd728a46cb40daa52c99a979f7c4ff195c
-.I /proc/net
-is a symbolic link to the directory
-.IR /proc/self/net ,
-which contains the same files and directories as listed below.
-However, these files and directories now expose information
-for the network namespace of which the process is a member.
-.TP
-.I /proc/net/arp
-This holds an ASCII readable dump of the kernel ARP table used for
-address resolutions.
-It will show both dynamically learned and preprogrammed ARP entries.
-The format is:
-.IP
-.in +4n
-.EX
-IP address HW type Flags HW address Mask Device
-192.168.0.50 0x1 0x2 00:50:BF:25:68:F3 * eth0
-192.168.0.250 0x1 0xc 00:00:00:00:00:00 * eth0
-.EE
-.in
-.IP
-Here "IP address" is the IPv4 address of the machine and the "HW type"
-is the hardware type of the address from RFC\ 826.
-The flags are the internal
-flags of the ARP structure (as defined in
-.IR /usr/include/linux/if_arp.h )
-and
-the "HW address" is the data link layer mapping for that IP address if
-it is known.
-.TP
-.I /proc/net/dev
-The dev pseudo-file contains network device status information.
-This gives
-the number of received and sent packets, the number of errors and
-collisions
-and other basic statistics.
-These are used by the
-.BR ifconfig (8)
-program to report device status.
-The format is:
-.IP

-.I /proc/net/raw
-Holds a dump of the RAW socket table.

-the "local_address" is the local address and protocol number pair.
-\&"St" is

-The "tr", "tm\->when", and "rexmits" fields are not used by RAW.
-The "uid"
-field holds the effective UID of the creator of the socket.
