NOTE:
To reset the port counters to zero, you must reboot the switch.
Port and trunk group statistics and flow control status
The features described in this section enable you to determine the traffic patterns for each port since the last
reboot or reset of the switch. You can display:
• A general report of traffic on all LAN ports and trunk groups in the switch, along with the per-port flow control
status (On or Off).
• A detailed summary of traffic on a selected port or trunk group.
You can also reset the counters for a specific port.
The menu interface provides a dynamic display of counters summarizing the traffic on each port. The CLI lets you
see a static "snapshot" of port or trunk group statistics at a particular moment.
As mentioned above, rebooting or resetting the switch resets the counters to zero. You can also reset the
counters to zero for the current session. This is useful for troubleshooting. See the Note, below.
NOTE:
The
Reset
action resets the counter display to zero for the current session, but does not affect the
cumulative values in the actual hardware counters. (In compliance with the SNMP standard, the
values in the hardware counters are not reset to zero unless you reboot the switch.) Exiting from the
console session and starting a new session restores the counter displays to the accumulated values
in the hardware counters.
Accessing port and trunk group statistics (CLI)
Viewing the port counter summary report
Syntax:
show interfaces
Provides an overview of port activity for all ports on the switch.
Viewing a detailed traffic summary for specific ports
Syntax:
show interfaces <
port-list
>
Provides traffic details for the ports you specify.
Displaying trunk load balancing statistics
To display trunk counters information since the trunk was formed with the given ports. If ports are added or
removed from the trunk-groups, statistical data is reset.
Syntax:
show trunk-statistics <
trunk-group
>
Displays the trunk counter information since the trunk was formed.
