he MTU and Met fields show the current MTU and metric values for that interface. The RX and TX columns show how many packets have been received or transmitted error-free (RX-OK/TX-OK) or damaged (RX-ERR/TX-ERR); how many were dropped (RX-DRP/TX-DRP); and how many were lost because of an overrun (RX-OVR/TX-OVR).

The last column shows the flags that have been set for this interface. These characters are one-character versions of the long flag names that are printed when you display the interface configuration with ifconfig:

B

A broadcast address has been set.
L

This interface is a loopback device.
M

All packets are received (promiscuous mode).
O

ARP is turned off for this interface.
P

This is a point-to-point connection.
R

Interface is running.
U

Interface is up.
