GE Port Statistics Dialog Box
Status information in the
GE Port Statistics
dialog box is described in
Table 6-6 .
NOTE:
Port statistic counters, such as RX octets, TX octets, and errors, can be
reset (via the
Reset
button) to a baseline count of zero and have the difference
displayed between this new baseline and subsequent polls. Resetting the
counters does not flush the counters in the SAN Router, rather it only
re-adjusts the displayed values in this instance of Element Manager.
