Hi,

in the output in attachment, I have two question that I couldn´t find in the documentation::

1 - What does "B" mean on transmitted packets?

I believe 17.05B means Billion, but I want to make sure.

Notice there is a K (Million?) on Multicast and Broadcast, that´s why I´m in doubt.

2 - Also, there are 221.88K Transmitted Packets Dropped but 0.00 Transmitted Bytes Dropped.

I believe there should have a value on Bytes, not zero. I can´t imagine a 0 Byte packet.

Does anyone have a clue on that?

Thanks.

Hey eyokota​,

So yes you are right it is for Billions of packets that are being transmited and on the "Transmited bytes" graphic you see 0 because the size is not enough to populate the table.

221.88K does not necessary means it will fill that value as it depends about the size.
