Filtering Statistics
The netstat –f command displays filtering statistics. The statistics are
cumulative for the Ethernet ports; i.e., changing filters does not reset the
counters. The counters for a SLIP and PPP line reset each time the
connection resets. Table B-11 describes the field definitions for the
command display.
The netstat –f command display looks like this:
annex01# netstat –f
