show control-traffic protocol
Display per-protocol counters of rate-limited control-plane traffic.
C9000 Series
Syntax
show contol—traffic protocol [cp—switch | linecard slot-id
portset port-pipe | pe pe-id stack-unit unit-number portset
port-pipe ] counters
Parameters
cp-switch Enter the keyword cp-switch to display counters for rate-
limited traffic on the central switch (aggregated CoPP).
linecard slot-id
portset port-pipe
Enter the slot ID and port pipe to display counters for rate-
limited traffic on a specified line card and port set. The slot
ID range is from 0 to 11. The port-pipe ID value is 0.
pe pe-id Enter the keyword pe and the port extender ID. Range is
from 0 to 255.
stack-unit unit
number
Enter the keyword stack-unit and the stack unit number.
Range is from 0 to 7.
portset port-pipe Enter the keyword portset and the port-pipe ID. Port pipe
ID value is 0.
counters Enter the keyword counters to display the traffic counters.
Defaults None
Command Modes EXEC Privilege

This guide is platform-specific. For command information about other platforms,
see the relevant Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide.
The following is a list of the Dell Networking OS version history for this command.
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the C9010.
9.2(1.0) Introduced on the Z9500.
Usage Information
In the show control-traffic protocol output, RxBytes displays the number
of bytes of control-plane traffic received on which protocol-based rate limiting is
applied. TxBytes displays the number of bytes transmitted to a control-plane CPU
after protocol-based rate limiting is applied. Drops display the number of bytes of
control-plane traffic that have been dropped as a result of protocol-based rate
limiting.
The number of RxBytes is calculated as: Drops/<packet-size> + TxBytes/<packet-
size + 4 bytes> = RxBytes (total packets received)
