Monitoring VLAN and S-VLAN Subinterfaces
This section explains how to display bit rate and packet rate statistics for VLAN subinterfaces and use the show commands to display the physical characteristics and the configured settings for VLAN and S-VLAN subinterfaces.
Displaying Interface Rate Statistics for VLAN Subinterfaces
You can use the monitor vlan interface command to display bit rate and packet rate statistics over a specified time interval for one or more VLAN subinterfaces configured on the router.
To display interface rate statistics for VLAN subinterfaces:
- Log in to the router by using a local console session or a virtual terminal (vty) session (such as a Telnet session).
While you are using the monitor vlan interface command, you must keep the console or terminal session open and you cannot issue any other commands at the session during this time.
For information about logging in to the router, see Accessing the CLI in JUNOSe System Basics Configuration Guide, Chapter 2, Command-Line Interface.
For information, see Accessing Command Modes in JUNOSe System Basics Configuration Guide, Chapter 2, Command-Line Interface.
- Specify the interface identifier for each VLAN subinterface that you want to monitor.
host1#monitor vlan interface fastEthernet 0/0.1 fastEthernet 4/0.1 display-time-of-day
For information about specifying interface identifiers for VLAN subinterfaces configured over Ethernet interfaces, see VLAN Overview. For information about specifying interface identifiers for VLAN subinterfaces configured over LAG bundles, see Configuring a VLAN Subinterface for a LAG Bundle.
By default, the router uses a 5-second time interval between polls to calculate bit rates and packet rates for each specified VLAN subinterface. Optionally, you can use the load-interval keyword to specify a nondefault time interval in the range 5–30 seconds.
You can also include the optional display-time-of-day keyword to show the time of day at which the router gathers statistics for each interval. Displaying the time of day enables you to monitor when a particular VLAN subinterface is underutilized or overutilized.
- Review the command output.

FastEthernet 4/0.1 5 120000/100 120000/100 10:50:17
The router polls each VLAN subinterface at the specified load interval (the default 5-second interval in this example) to calculate and display bit rate and packet rate statistics. The first line of output for each interface always displays 0 (zero) for the number of seconds between polls, and dashes (--/--) in the Input bps/pps and Output bps/pps columns. These values indicate that the router initially takes a baseline for each interface against which to measure subsequent statistics. The router continues to display subsequent lines of output for each interface at the specified load interval until you press Ctrl+c to stop the command.
For a description of each field in the monitor vlan interface command output, see monitor vlan interface.
monitor vlan interface
- Use to display bit rate and packet rate statistics over a specified time interval for one or more VLAN subinterfaces.
- You must use the monitor vlan interface command in a dedicated console or terminal session for the duration of the monitoring session.
- Specify the interface identifier for each VLAN subinterface that you want to monitor.
- To specify a nondefault time interval in the range 5–30 seconds at which the router calculates bit rate and packet rate statistics, use the optional load-interval keyword. The default time interval is 5 seconds.
- To display the time at which the router calculates bit rate and packet rate statistics for the current interval, use the optional display-time-of-day keyword.
- To stop the monitor vlan interface command, press Ctrl+c.
- Field descriptions
- Interface—Interface identifier for the Ethernet or LAG interface on which the VLAN subinterface resides
- Seconds between polls—Number of seconds at which the router calculates bit rate and packet rate statistics
- Input bps/pps—Number of bits per second (bps) and packets per second (pps) received on this interface during the specified load interval
- Output bps/pps—Number of bits per second (bps) and packets per second (pps) transmitted on this interface during the specified load interval
