    ifconfig statistics by C programing

    Hi All,
    I need to get network interface statistics like
    RX packets:74683563 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
    TX packets:84739585 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
    collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
    by C programing in Linux. Is it possible to get these by socket interface using ioctl call?
    Thanks in advance
    Jayakar

    you should be able to use the exec system call and run the ifconfig command, but its been a while since i've done any C/OS programming
