Displaying Port Statistics
To display port statistics, use the following command:
show port counters [octets | packets | receive-errors | transmit-errors |
collisions | receive-etherstats | transmit-etherstats] [port port-list]
You can specify one statistic type with the command. For example, to display octet statistics for port 3, type
the following command:
23x0# show port counters octets port 3
Port Status Rx Octets Tx Octets
===============================================================================
3 Up 27965420 34886544
(For information about the fields in the output, see the Nortel WLAN Security Switch 2300 Software Command
Reference.)
Clearing Statistics Counters
To clear all port statistics counters, use the following command:
clear port counters
The counters begin incrementing again, starting from 0.
Monitoring Port Statistics
You can display port statistics in a format that continually updates the counters. When you enable monitoring
of port statistics, WSS Software clears the CLI session window and displays the statistics at the top of the
window. WSS Software refreshes the statistics every 5 seconds. This interval cannot be configured.
Note. To display all types of statistics with the same command, use the monitor port
counters command. (See “Monitoring Port Statistics” on page 85.)
