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 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port/

subport information.

– For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.

– For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to 16383.

– For the Management interface on the stack-unit, enter the keyword ManagementEthernet then

the slot/port information. The slot range is from 1 to 6. The port range is 1.

– For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.

– For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094.

– (OPTIONAL) To clear statistics for all VRRP groups configured, enter the keyword vrrp. Enter a

number from 1 to 255 as the vrid.

– (OPTIONAL) To clear unknown source address (SA) drop counters when you configure the MAC

learning limit on the interface, enter the keywords learning-limit.

Example of the clear counters Command

When you enter this command, confirm that you want Dell Networking OS to clear the interface counters

for that interface.

Dell#clear counters te 1/1/1

The functionality to optimize and reduce the sizes of the configuration files is supported on the device.

You can compress the running configuration by grouping all the VLANs and the physical interfaces with

the same property. Support to store the operating configuration to the startup config in the compressed

mode and to perform an image downgrade without any configuration loss are provided.

You can create groups of VLANs using the interface group command. This command will create

non-existant VLANs specified in a range. On successful command execution, the CLI switches to the

interface group context. The configuration commands inside the group context will be the similar to that

of the existing range command.
