Add more info in the Web UI for Interfaces, such as Errors etc.

Bruce_BriggsBruce_Briggs
in Firebox - Product Enhancements

There is potentially important interface problem resolution info in WSM Firebox System Manager -> Status Report on interfaces, including the following:
RX packets:54059427 errors:154 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:19380579 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
None of this info is available in the Web UI, which can be valuable when trying to resolve interface connection issues.

Please have this info available in the Web UI.
Note that more and more sites are moving away from Windows based systems.

    Hi Bruce

    I opened a feature request for this. That is FBX-27166.

    In the meantime, you can pull this data via the webUI via a support file.

    -Go to System Status -> Diagnostics, and select Download a support log file.

    Open the TGZ file that is downloaded, and navigate to:
    T80_support.tgz\T80_support.tar\support\system\system_status.txt
    This is the text of the actual status report that is generated in the status report, just in a text file. You can find the interface statistics you're looking for. (If you search for "Interfaces" this section will be the first one near the top that matches.
