Hi Aaron,

Brocade for some reason decided not to implement interface counters for ve interfaces on the CES/CERs, so of course I don’t get any utilization graphs for these interfaces.
Is anyone out there running MLX or XMR? Out of morbid curiosity, do the VLAN interface octet/packet counters work on them?
It is the same on MLX and XMR. Counters don't work with ve interfaces.
This is common across a great many vendors and platforms.
You sometimes have luck upgrading the software, or hoping for a future implementation, but often it's a limitation of the ASICs involved, or just that the vendor doesn't see any utility in implementing the counters.
I remember being super pleased when Cisco implemented these counters for sub-interfaces, way back when. :)
