Port Statistics
ExtremeWare provides a facility for viewing port statistic information. The summary information lists
values for the current counter against each port on each operational module in the system, and it is
refreshed approximately every 2 seconds. Values are displayed to nine digits of accuracy.

To view port statistics, use the following command:
show ports <portlist> stats
The following port statistic information is collected by the switch:
• Link Status —
The current status of the link. Options are:

—
Active (the link is present at this port).
—
Chassis (the link is connected to a Summit Virtual Chassis).
• Transmitted Packet Count (Tx Pkt Count) —
The number of packets that have been successfully
transmitted by the port.
• Transmitted Byte Count (Tx Byte Count) —
The total number of data bytes successfully transmitted
by the port.
• Received Packet Count (Rx Pkt Count) —
The total number of good packets that have been received
by the port.
• Received Byte Count (RX Byte Count) —
The total number of bytes that were received by the port,

• Transmit Collisions (TX Coll) —
The total number of collisions seen by the port, regardless of
whether a device connected to the port participated in any of the collisions.
• Transmit Late Collisions (TX Late Coll) —
The total number of collisions that have occurred after
