Port Statistics
Use the Port Statistics menu to display Etherlike or RMON statistics
for any port on the switch. The statistics displayed are indicated in
the following figure and table.
Etherlike Statistics
Etherlike Statistics display key statistics from the Ethernet-like MIB
for each port. Error statistics on the traffic passing through each
port are displayed. This information can be used to identify
potential problems with the switch (such as a faulty port or
unusually heavy loading). Values displayed have been
accumulated since the last system reboot.
