Error description

  • The network interface counters displayed for VLANs are always 0,
    
    even
    if they are actively being used for traffic. The network
    interface counters can
    be displayed by any of the following methods:
    
    1) "show network-interface" in the CLI
    2) Navigating to "Status->IP-Network->Network Interfaces" in the
    WebGUI
    3) Using SOMA to get-status for all classes or
    class="NetworkInterfaceStatus"
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Affected are customers configuring VLAN virtual interfaces on
    DataPower appliances running firmware versions 5.0.0.0-5.0.0.4.
    Earlier firmware releases are not affected.
    
    Network interface statistics reported via "show
    network-interface" CLI command, WebGUI or other management
    channels report all counts as 0 for each VLAN interface even if
    the interface takes traffic.
    
    This is caused by a programming error in the VLAN interface
    implementation.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
