If you > don't run SNMP, who cares? SNMP is only an example of the issue. The example of multiple CLI users is equally valid. If you want to see the counter delta from a recent start point then use a tool that can keep track of the counter value at the start point and only show you a delta from that start point. (snmpdelta from the net-snmp tools is an example of such a tool, as is the '-w wait' option on the various *stat tools, including netstat for the very interface counters in question here) -- Greg A.
