TATISTICS
The system collects bridge statistics for each LAN port and for WAN connections. These bridge
statistics include information on the number of frames received, forwarded, discarded or
transmitted. If the system is configured for two LAN ports, there is a line of counters for each LAN
port. However, the WAN counters are totaled for all WAN ports.
Display bridge statistics by issuing the
br stats
command at the administration console:
Received
Number of frames received from a LAN port or WAN connection.
Forwarded
Number of frames received from LAN port 1 or LAN port 2 or all WAN ports and processed for
transmission to the proper networks. Discarded frames are not forwarded for transmission.
Discarded
Number frames received and then discarded (i.e., not forwarded to another LAN port or WAN
connection).
Transmit
Number of frames sent out through LAN port 1 or LAN port 2 or all WAN ports to connected
networks.
Note:
Forward refers to the passing of a received frame from one port to another within the
CyberSWITCH. A frame can be received on any port (LAN or WAN) and forwarded to any
other port, unless it is discarded. A forwarded frame is one which is not deliberately
discarded (for example, via filters) by the CyberSWITCH. Once the frame gets to the new
port, it is usually transmitted. However, it may not be transmitted, such as when a packet is
forwarded to a WAN port, but no connection is up on that port.

TATISTICS
You can access these statistics by issuing the
cdr stats
command.
OutOfBuffer
The number of times a buffer was unavailable to send a CDR report record. In this case, the
intended record is discarded. The OutOfBuffer counter reflects the number of CDR records that
have been discarded.
Connects
This counter reflects the number of connect events that have occurred since the system was loaded.
This is an unsigned long integer; it will wrap after 0FFFFFFFF hex or 4,294,967,295 decimal.
Disconnects
This counter reflects the number of disconnect events that have occurred since the system was
loaded. This is an unsigned long integer; it will wrap after 0FFFFFFFF hex or 4,294,967,295 decimal.
Rejects
This counter reflects the number of reject events that have occurred since the system was loaded.
This is an unsigned long integer; it will wrap after 0FFFFFFFF hex or 4,294,967,295 decimal.
