Syntax: monitor interface traffic [ethernet slot/port]
The monitor interface traffic command uses page mode display to produce an updating statistics 
screen which is updated every poll interval and which can be modified using the commands shown 
at the bottom of the display. (Note that when you enter footer options they are not executed 
immediately but will be interpreted by the monitor engine during the next polling cycle.) Normally 
the display begins with the lowest numbered Ethernet port; the ethernet slot/port option starts the 
display instead with the specified port.
The footer commands and their effects are described inTable 20.
TABLE 20
Footer commands for monitor interface traffic display
p
Displays input/output packets instead of bytes and continues the execution of the original 
command.
b
Displays input/output bytes instead of packets and continues the execution of the original 
command.
d
Displays delta counters instead of rate counters and continues the execution of the original 
command.
r
Displays rate counters instead of delta counters and continues the execution of the original 
command.
c
Clears the current delta counters and continues the execution of the original command. To clear the 
aggregate counters, use the appropriate clear command. 
n
Moves to the next group of interfaces and continues the execution of the original command.
f
Freezes the execution of the command; pauses retrieval and display of the statistics. While display is 
frozen, the only valid commands are s and q: you can restart or quit the monitor, but any other 
command will be ignored.
s
Restarts the execution of the command; resumes retrieval and display of the statistics.
