It *is* printed: From lib/interface.c (net-tools 1.60):
if (hw->print != NULL && (! (hw_null_address(hw, ptr->hwaddr) && hw->suppress_null_addr))) printf(_("HWaddr %s "), hw->print(ptr->hwaddr)); #ifdef IFF_PORTSEL if (ptr->flags & IFF_PORTSEL) { printf(_("Media:%s"), if_port_text[ptr->map.port][0]); if (ptr->flags & IFF_AUTOMEDIA) printf(_("(auto)")); } #endif printf("\n");
So, something has set IFF_PORTSEL, and ptr->map.port is not within bounds. Or you have a kernel which does not support IFF_PORTSEL, but something else is using ptr->flags with different values...
