no you just have to copy and paste the output of the logs here

what is the command for that
cd / , takes me to root
and i do cd var/log and takes me to that directory and what

welp to make this easier, just go back to your home directory, do journalctl >> output.txt in the terminal and then copy and paste the contents of the text file here
if its too long then just post the text file in here

If the NIC is sending a few BYTES every second I would not worry about it.
