Information
EtherScale systems display cumulative dropped packets, while TeraScale systems display 
cumulative queued bytes (in KB), cumulative queued packets (in KB), and cumulative 
dropped packets (in KB).
The display area is limited to 80 spaces to accommodate the screen and for optimal 
readability. Numbers, that is values, are limited to 12 characters. The numbering conventions 
are detailed in the table below.
Table 42-10. Numbering Conventions for show queue egress statistics Output 
Example
(TeraScale)
FTOS#show queue statistics egress unicast gigabitethernet 9/1
Interface Gi 9/1 
unicast | multicast  (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword multicast to display only Multicast 
queue statistics. Enter the keyword 
unicast to display only Unicast 
queue statistics.
Default: Both Unicast and Multicast queue statistics are displayed.
Interface
(OPTIONAL) Enter one of the following interfaces to display the 
interface specific queue statistics. 
• For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword 
GigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information. 
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword 
TenGigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information.
• For a SONET interface, enter the keyword 
sonet followed by the 
slot/port information.
• Fast Ethernet is not supported.
brief
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword brief to display only ingress per 
link buffering and egress per port buffering statistics. 
Version 6.2.1.1 Introduced for E-Series
Value  Divide the number by Quotient Display Examples
(10^11) - (10^14)  1024 K 12345678901K
(10^14) - (10^17)  1024*1024 M 12345678901M
> (10^17)  1024*1024*1024 T 12345678901T
Note: The show queue statistics command displays Queued Packets and Queued 
Bytes. The show qos statistics command displays Matched Packets and Matched 
Bytes. The following example explains how these two outputs relate to each other.
• 9000 byte size packets are sent from Interface A to Interface B.
• The Matched Packets on Interface A are equal to the Queued Packets on Interface B.
• Matched bytes on Interface A = matched packets *9000 
• Queued bytes on Interface B = queued packets *(9020)—Each packet has an additional 
header of 20 bytes.
