6 Using VLAN Statistics

VLAN Statistics displays detailed statistics for each VLAN. These statistics can help you maintain proper VLAN configuration. They can also help you pinpoint problems you may discover using Switch Statistics. For a detailed overview of VLAN Statistics, refer to “VLAN Statistics Overview” on page 6.

*Note: The statistics collected for each VLAN only include the packets that are sent to and from stations connected to the switch fabric of the device being analyzed. Therefore, any traffic that does not pass through the switch fabric of the selected device is not included in the statistics.
