Cisco Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module (CGESM) for HP Technical References

Use the show interfaces counters privileged EXEC command to display various counters for the switch 
or for a specific interface. 

show interfaces [interface-id | vlan vlan-id] counters [errors | etherchannel | protocol status | 

trunk] [ | {begin | exclude | include} expression]

Though visible in the command-line help string, the vlan vlan-id keyword is not supported.

Privileged EXEC

If you do not enter any keywords, all counters for all interfaces are included.

Expressions are case sensitive. For example, if you enter | exclude output, the lines that contain output 
are not displayed, but the lines that contain Output are displayed.

This is an example of partial output from the show interfaces counters command. It displays all 
counters for the switch.
