Which command to use to determine status of dohwcksum?

Gurus;

In Sun Solve Document 72241, it says;

"To turn off the built-in TCP hardware checksum for troubleshooting,

add following entry to /etc/system and reboot:

 set ip:dohwcksum=0

If you set dohwcksum = 0 (default = 1), the IP module does not negotiate
the TCP HW checksum with the ethernet driver."

How exactly do I determine the current value/status of ip:dohwcksum on a running Solaris 9 system?

I have tried

#kstat ip
#kstat bge

on a v240 but I am unable to determine whether the options listed tie to the above hardware checksumming feature.

(I know the document says it is default=1 but I would like to have a sure way of determining the current status in a running system).

Warmest Regards
