Subject: [BRIDGE]A basic question: what's the relationship of the Rx/Tx packets count between the bridge and its enslaved NIC.
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2005 11:40:40 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fd54385205081520403350f16a@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I have a bridge br0, it enslaves two NICs: eth0 and eth1.
By using "cat /proc/net/dev ", i can see the Rx/Tx packets and bytes
through each interface. just like this:
[* time tick 1 *]
Inter-| Receive | Transmit
face |bytes packets errs drop fifo frame compressed
multicast|bytes packets errs drop fifo colls carrier compressed

br0: 51341 341 0 0 0 0 0 0
35324 277 0 0 0 0 0 0
I wonder the meaning of the value of the br0, it's Rx/Tx packets is
less than both eth0 and eth1.
what's the relationship of the values between bridge and it's enslaved NIC?
Thanks for your comments on this.
