EC2 instance - nic speed

0

I have a EC2 instance, running RHEL 8. I would like to view the network interface card (nic) speed from the command line. Is there a command that will display the speed for the nic? I've used the ethtool command, but I only get an output of 2 lines of information - neither of which is the speed.

ethtool eth0

Settings for eth0: Link detected: yes

The "ethernet" port that is presented to your instance is a virtual port - it's not a physical port and therefore doesn't have a speed that is negotiated (like a physical port does).

Different instance types have different networking capabilities. The documentation talks about how to find the available bandwidth for your instance type.
