Showing Port Statistics

You can display statistics on network traffic from the ports. These statistics 
can be used to identify potential problems with the switch (such as a faulty 
port or unusually heavy loading). All values displayed for a port have been 
accumulated since the last system reboot, but can be reset to zero by clicking 
the CLEAR button. Clicking the CLEAR button will only reset the statistics of 
the current port. The statistics on this page will auto-refresh. If you wish to 
pause the auto-refresh operation, click the PAUSE button. To resume the auto-
refresh operation, click the CONTINUE button.
