I'm not quite sure what you're saying here. Are you saying that if you use a refresh interval of 1, it tells you you're getting over 800,000 packets forwarded per second, but with a longer refresh interval, it gives you values of around 35,000 packets per second? And that you know from some other method that the latter is correct? -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
