Some versions of netstat lack explicit field delimiters in their printf-generated output,
leading to numeric fields running together and thus corrupting the output data.

The ReactOS netstat command

The macOS netstat command


Under Linux, raw data can often be obtained from the /proc/net/dev to work around
the printf output corruption arising in netstat's network interface statistics
summary, netstat -i, until such time as the problem is corrected.[citation needed]
On the Windows platform, netstat information can be retrieved by calling
the GetTcpTable and GetUdpTable functions in the IP Helper API, or IPHLPAPI.DLL.
Information returned includes local and remote IP addresses, local and remote ports,
and (for GetTcpTable) TCP status codes. In addition to the command-line netstat.exe
tool that ships with Windows, GUI-based netstat programs are available.

On the Windows platform, this command is available only if the Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) protocol is installed as a component in the properties of a network adapter in

On the Windows platform running Remote Desktop Services (formerly Terminal

On macOS, the /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications folder (or


/Applications/Utilities in OS X Mountain Lion and earlier) contains a network GUI utility
called Network Utility, the Netstat tab of which runs the netstat command and displays
its output in the tab.
