Bytes Out
The total number of bytes, displayed in scientific notation, output from the
decompressor. This represents all the traffic received by the modem.
Last 10s
Calculated using the exact same formula as Savings (XX%), but uses the Bytes In and
Bytes Out for the past 10 seconds so you can see what compression is being
accomplished on current data.

(Monitor: Stats) Compression  Clr (Clear Statistics Buffer)
Use the  arrow keys to select Y (Yes) to clear the Compression statistics buffer. The default

6.2.3.7 (Monitor:) Buffer
WAN Buffer Fill Status: 100%
This read-only screen indicates the fill state of the Modem to WAN or Modem to Satellite Buffer.
When the WAN Buffer Fill Status figure is increasing, this indicates that user traffic is exceeding
the capacity of the satellite link. If the figure is decreasing, this indicates that there is more
satellite capacity than there is user traffic.
When Flow Control is Enabled (see (CONFIG: INTF)(GBEIX) FlowControl in Sect.
6.2.2.4.2), the modem begins to send Pause Frames to any device connected to the
Ethernet Data Interfaces at approximately 87% capacity. Pause Frames cease to be
sent to the Ethernet Interfaces when the WAN Buffer Full Status drops below 75%
capacity.
