Enabling application statistics on an interface


[IMPORTANT: ]

IMPORTANT:

The application statistics feature consumes large amount of system memory. When the system generates an alarm for lack of memory, disable the application statistics feature on all interfaces.


When the application statistics feature is enabled on an interface, the device separately counts the number of packets or bytes that the interface has received or sent for each application protocol. It also calculates the transmission rates of the interface for these protocols.

To display application statistics, use the display application statistics command.
