La commande mii-tool indique dans quel état se trouve la carte réseau :
eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok

On voit donc ici que la carte réseau est à 100Mb/s en Full Duplex et que le lien est UP.

Avec mii-tool -v, on a encore plus d'informations :
eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok   
  product info: vendor 00:10:18, model 23 rev 6   
  basic mode:   autonegotiation enabled
