Encryption Statistics

Encryption statistics show the number of packets successfully encrypted and decrypted. Inbound packets 
are received on the remote port and decrypted before being sent to the trusted network. Outbound packets 
are encrypted and sent from the remote port across an untrusted network. The encryption statistics 
counters are 32-bit counters, which roll over after reaching their maximum value.

To view encryption statistics:

From the CLI, enter the 

show all

 command

In ETEMS, click 

View > Statistics

MAC Statistics

MAC statistics show frame and packet counters on the ETEP local and remote ports. The MAC statistics 
counters are 64-bit counters, which roll over after reaching their maximum value. 

To view MAC statistics:

From the CLI, enter the 

show all

 command

In ETEMS, click 

View > Statistics

Counters

Counters are displayed for transmitted and received packets on the local and remote ports. The counters 
are shown for packets that are received on the appliance’s local port and transmitted from its remote port, 
and vice versa: RxLocalPort, TxRemotePort, RxRemotePort, TxLocalPort.
