Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 14 Apr 2005

Q:
Is there a way to reset the RX Bytes which are shown with ifconfig?

A:
There is no way to reset this bytes without restarting. The data is located at /proc/net/dev so it is not writeable. You have to restart the network if you want to reset it.
