From the result, I understand that my NIC Card model is HP NC382i NIC Adapter from Hewlett-Packard and the chipset used is Broadcom BCM5709. I ran above said command on my Linux machine and got the below provided result. This command will list the actual name of the network adapter next to “ Subsystem”. Go ahead and try the command: lspci -v | grep Ethernet -A 1 So if you need detailed information about the NIC card, then we can specify more options to the lspci command. Lspci command provides very detailed information about all PCIbuses and devices in the system. If you are using Ubuntu or Debian, then use the command apt-get install pciutils to enable lspci command. lspci is part of pciutils package and if you are using Redhat, CentOS or Fedora, then you need to run yum install pciutils command to install this tool. NOTE: lspci command may not be available by default on all Linux machines. When you run the same command in your linux box, you should see something similar to this. It looks like the network card uses the BCM5709 chip from Broadcom. I tried above said command in my Linux Server and got the following results. So in order to find only network cards, you can run following command: lspci | grep -i “Ethernet”
lspci command will list all detected PCI or PCIe hardware devices installed on your machine. To find the model number of Network Interface Card installed in your Machine, you can use the lspci command. Whatever your needs are, below said method should help you.įind the Model Number of Network Card in Linux: This information can be handy when you want to download a driver for the Network Card or you wanted to check whether the NIC card is supported by your Linux Operating System.
Let us start by finding the Network Card model number and chipset used in it. In this article, we will discuss different commands which can be used to find all these information. Rarely, you may also need to find MAC Address, Network Statistics and Hardware Settings of NIC Card as well. In many occasions, we may need to find the Model number, Driver version, Firmware version and other features of a Network Interface Card (NIC) which is already installed on your Linux Server.
