Command
Step 3
Switch(config-if)# counter {ipv4 | ipv6 | ipv4
ipv6 separate>
Step 4
Switch(config)# end
Step 5
Switch# show run interface interface-id
This example shows how to enable counters on interface VLAN 1:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.
Switch(config)# interface vlan 1
Switch(config-if)# counter ipv4
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#
00:17:15: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
Switch# show run interface vlan 1
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 63 bytes
!
interface Vlan1
ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
counter ipv4
end
To remove the counters, use the no counter command.
Note
If you have already assigned the maximum number of counters, the counter command fails and displays
an error message:
Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.
Switch(config)# interface fa3/2
Switch(config-if)# no switchport
Switch(config-if)# counter ipv6
Counter resource exhausted for interface fa3/2
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#
00:24:18: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
In this situation, you must release a counter from another interface for use by the new interface.
