Interface Statistics
The interface I/F Statistics window ( Figure 3-3 ) provides MIB-II interface statistical
information — including counts for both transmit and receive packets, and error and
buffering information — for the front panel interfaces on the SmartSwitch 6000 or Matrix
E7 series chassis. Color-coded pie charts in the middle of the window let you graphically
view statistics for Unicast, Non-Unicast, Discarded and Error packets.
To access the interface’s I/F Statistics window:
1. In the Device View window, click on the appropriate port interface to display
the Port menu.
2. Click on I/F Statistics. The MIB-II I/F Statistics window will appear.

TIP
Remember, this window can always be launched from the I/F Statistics option on the
Device View port menus; it may also be launched from the Statistics option if the selected
interface does not support RMON or if the RMON Default MIB component has been
administratively disabled. This window is also available for all port interfaces via the I/F
Summary window (described in Chapter 2,
The Device View ) or the Bridge Port menus in
the Bridge Status view (see the Element Manager Tools Guide).
