Dynamic Counters
By default, counting is enabled for IPFLOW, IPACL, L2ACL, L2FIB.
For the remaining applications, Dell Networking OS automatically turns on counting when you enable the
application, and is turned off when you disable the application.
NOTE: If you enable more than four counter-dependent applications on a port pipe, there is an
impact on line rate performance.
The following counter-dependent applications are supported by Dell Networking OS:
• Egress VLAN
• Ingress VLAN
• Next Hop 2
• Next Hop 1
• Egress ACLs
• ILM
• IP FLOW
• IP ACL
• IP FIB
• L2 ACL
• L2 FIB
Clearing Interface Counters
The counters in the show interfaces command are reset by the clear counters command. This
command does not clear the counters any SNMP program captures.
To clear the counters, use the following the command.
• Clear the counters used in the show interface commands for all VRRP groups, VLANs, and physical
interfaces or selected ones. Without an interface specified, the command clears all interface counters.
EXEC Privilege mode
clear counters [interface] [vrrp [vrid] | learning-limit]
(OPTIONAL) Enter the following interface keywords and slot/port or number information:
– For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet then the slot/port

– For a Port Channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
– For the management interface on the RPM, enter the keyword ManagementEthernet then the
slot/port information. The slot range is from 0 to 1. The port range is 0.
– For a SONET interface, enter the keyword sonet then the slot/ port information.
– For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port
