Displays active TCP connections, ports on which the computer is listening, Ethernet statistics, the IP routing table, IPv4 statistics (for the IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP protocols), and IPv6 statistics (for the IPv6, ICMPv6, TCP over IPv6, and UDP over IPv6 protocols). Used without parameters, this command displays active TCP connections.
Important
How do I install ss on OS X? I couldn't find the iproute package in homebrew. Download canon xf utility 1.3.1 for mac os x. Red Hat recommends ss over netstat in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Ss is provided by the iproute package. I am a Linux guy. In Linux it is extremely easy with netstat -ltpn or any combination of those letters. But in Mac OS X netstat -an grep LISTEN is the most humane. Others are very ugly and very difficult to remember when troubleshooting.
This command is available only if the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol is installed as a component in the properties of a network adapter in Network Connections.
Syntax
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
-a | Displays all active TCP connections and the TCP and UDP ports on which the computer is listening. |
-b | Displays the executable involved in creating each connection or listening port. In some cases well-known executables host multiple independent components, and in these cases the sequence of components involved in creating the connection or listening port is displayed. In this case the executable name is in [] at the bottom, on top is the component it called, and so forth until TCP/IP was reached. Note that this option can be time-consuming and will fail unless you have sufficient permissions. |
-e | Displays Ethernet statistics, such as the number of bytes and packets sent and received. This parameter can be combined with -s. |
-n | Displays active TCP connections, however, addresses and port numbers are expressed numerically and no attempt is made to determine names. |
-o | Displays active TCP connections and includes the process ID (PID) for each connection. You can find the application based on the PID on the Processes tab in Windows Task Manager. This parameter can be combined with -a, -n, and -p. |
-p <Protocol> | Shows connections for the protocol specified by Protocol. In this case, the Protocol can be tcp, udp, tcpv6, or udpv6. If this parameter is used with -s to display statistics by protocol, Protocol can be tcp, udp, icmp, ip, tcpv6, udpv6, icmpv6, or ipv6. |
-s | Displays statistics by protocol. By default, statistics are shown for the TCP, UDP, ICMP, and IP protocols. If the IPv6 protocol is installed, statistics are shown for the TCP over IPv6, UDP over IPv6, ICMPv6, and IPv6 protocols. The -p parameter can be used to specify a set of protocols. |
-r | Displays the contents of the IP routing table. This is equivalent to the route print command. |
<interval> | Redisplays the selected information every interval seconds. Press CTRL+C to stop the redisplay. If this parameter is omitted, this command prints the selected information only once. |
/? | Displays help at the command prompt. |
Remarks
- The netstat command provides statistics for the following:In my shop, we use a Xerox color copier/printer along with a number of Canon ImageRunner printers. Unlike our Canon printers, our Xerox printer used LPR already so I figured that getting the right drivers deployed should be straightforward.Then I looked at Xerox’s driver page and saw three different driver installers available:For 10.5.x –For 10.6.x –For 10.7.x through 10.9.x –I wanted to maintain, but I also wanted to make sure that the OS-appropriate driver was delivered to each Mac.For details on how I addressed this, see below the jump.Here’s the workflow I wanted to use when the Xerox printer setup is requested via Self Service:A. When I recently overhauled my Canon printer setups, I decided to also revisit how Self Service handled setting up the Xerox printer. Like the Canons, I have the Xerox printer available in Casper’s Self Service so that our users can set this printer up themselves on their Macs. Xerox printer drivers for mac os x 10.66.
Parameter Description Proto The name of the protocol (TCP or UDP). Local address The IP address of the local computer and the port number being used. The name of the local computer that corresponds to the IP address and the name of the port is shown unless the -n parameter is specified. If the port is not yet established, the port number is shown as an asterisk (*). Foreign address The IP address and port number of the remote computer to which the socket is connected. The names that corresponds to the IP address and the port are shown unless the -n parameter is specified. If the port is not yet established, the port number is shown as an asterisk (*). State Indicates the state of a TCP connection, including: - CLOSE_WAIT
- CLOSED
- ESTABLISHED
- FIN_WAIT_1
- FIN_WAIT_2
- LAST_ACK
- LISTEN
- SYN_RECEIVED
- SYN_SEND
- TIMED_WAIT
