If both machines are running NetBSD "ifconfig" on the ethernet interface
will tell you:

tron@colwyn:~>ifconfig wm0
wm0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
[...]
        media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full- 
duplex,flowcontrol,master,rxpause,txpause)
        status: active
[...]

In this case the interface is running at 1Gb/s in full-duplex mode.

        Kind regards
