Port Statistics
Use the Port Statistics menu to display Etherlike or RMON statistics
for any port on the switch. Select the required port. 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.
