netstat -in Ipkts Opkts

[j773303]

Does anyone knows how to clear Ipkts and Opkts of netstat -in outputs? Thanks.

I don't know of a way, other than to reboot.

If you use the interval option, it will show you the totals on the first line and the stats for the preceding interval from then on ...

# netstat -in 10
(lan0)->input output (Total)-> input output
packets packets packets packets
1572822 499555 1948889 875622
15 3 17 5
1 1 3 3
2 1 4 3

Lanadmin can clear the stats at the link layer, but not at the IP layer.

Hope this helps.
