there are many ways to do this.
1.  cat /dev/kmesg
you should get lines that start with #ln, where n is a small
nonnegative integer.

#l0: i82574: 1000Mbps port 0xFA6E0000 irq 11 tu 1514: 003048d788de
#l1: i82574: 1000Mbps port 0xFA7E0000 irq 10 tu 1514: 003048d788df

2. ls /net/ether0.

if you have a network, you will get similar output to this.  (you may
not have the mtu file.  that's my addition, especially for aoe performance.)

chula# chula# lc /net/ether0
0	1	2	3	addr	clone	ifstats	mtu	stats

yes.
