RFE a way to reset counters without rebooting the box. Don't really
care if it resets SNMP counters right now, although it would be nice if
they were separate options. It is a pain troubleshooting problems with
a port (pick one) when all the numbers given are totals since reboot.
By clearing counters it is much more obvious whether you still have a
problem and it also helps to better quantify things like bandwidth for
x period of time, etc. Yeah you could break out the ol calculator but
this is tedious at best during on-the-fly troubleshooting. And rebooting
the box (pick one) with up to 60 customers online or a dedicated line
is NOT an option.
