Possible to Show Ethernet Status in Menu Bar?

I remember in Snow Leopard, I could see the ethernet status up in the gray menu bar to the left of the clock along with the wi-fi, bluetooth, etc status but for whatever reason I'm not seeing the ethernet status. Is that normal/expected? Is it possible to get it to show up?

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

Late to answer but still for those landing here looking for a Ethernet connectivity status icon in menu bar, check this macOS app Ethernet Status - The Missing LAN Status Bar Icon. It shows ethernet interface, IP Address and if interface is active via changing menu bar icon. More here
