This section contains the following topics:

Using the monitor interface Command on page 245

Using the monitor traffic Command on page 246

Using the monitor interface Command

Use the CLI

monitor interface

command to display real-time traffic, error, alarm, and

filter statistics about a physical or logical interface. Enter the command with the
following syntax:

user@host> monitor interface (interface-name | traffic)

Replace

interface-name

with the name of a physical or logical interface. If you specify

the

traffic

option, statistics for all active interfaces are displayed.

The real-time statistics are updated every second. The

Current delta

and

Delta

columns

display the amount the statistics counters have changed since the

monitor interface

command was entered or since you cleared the delta counters. Table 127 on page
245 and Table 128 on page 245
list the keys you use to control the display using the

interface-name

and

traffic

options. (The keys are not case sensitive.)
