exclude-ethernet-overhead
The exclude-ethernet-overhead option, lets the operator exclude the Ethernet header (14
bytes) and Ethernet overhead (20 bytes) and CRC overhead (four bytes) when collecting the
byte statistics. In other words, it counts only the size of MPLS packet. The
exclude-ethernet-overhead option does not work with untagged ports carrying q-in-q
packets for IP over MPLS, nor does it count multiple tags in a packet. To enforce the clearing of
counters when exclude-ethernet-overhead mode is changed, a confirmation message is added to
the command and on execution, the command clears the counters.
Syntax ingress-tunnel-accounting exclude-ethernet-overhead
[no] ingress-tunnel-accounting exclude-ethernet-overhead
Command
default
None
Parameters None
Command
modes
Sub-configuration MPLS policy mode (config-mpls-policy).
Usage guidelines The operation of the command based on the operator input can be defined as below:
• ‘y’ – configuration change done; counters cleared.
• ‘n’ – configuration change not done; counter not cleared.
The command no ingress-tunnel-accounting exclude-ethernet-overhead disables only the
exclude-ethernet-overhead option. To disable ingress-tunnel-accounting itself, enter the command
no ingress-tunnel-accounting.
NOTE
This feature is applicable only on LSPs for which the devices are an ingress LER.
