# baseline bridge interface

#### Syntax

baseline bridge interface interfaceType interfaceSpecifier

#### Release Information

Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.

#### Description

Sets a statistics baseline for a specified network interface belonging to a bridge group or VPLS instance. The router implements the baseline by reading and storing the statistics at the time the baseline is set and then subtracting this baseline whenever baseline-relative statistics are retrieved. There is no no version.

| Note: Using the baseline bridge interface command for a VPLS instance affects the specified network interface associated with the VPLS instance, but has no effect on the VPLS virtual core interface, which represents all of the MPLS tunnels from the router to the remote VPLS edge (VE) devices. To set a statistics baseline for the VPLS virtual core interface, use the baseline bridge interface vpls command.
