Clearing Interface Counters
You can clear (reset to zero) error, packet, and other counters associated
with a specific interface, or all interfaces. You may find this useful if you want to
track recent changes in one or more counters. For a complete list of interface and bridge
port counters, see VNswitch Switch Packet Counters.
