ok.

One probably stupid question: Why is not done similar sum in output of 'ip -s l 
l' ?

Imagine me :), I do 'ifconfig' and see dropped packets and then I do 'ip -s l l'
and see zeros. I stare on it like an idiot. Where is bug ? ifconfig ? ip ?
(man page of ip and 'ip -s -s l l' with missed packets stats saved me :).

IMHO I think that comparable outputs of both programs should be still the same.

thanks for reply.
