Shame on you disparaging Assend with a name like that! 8) No offense to
Kevin@ascend but I call them the same. Guess it goes with the portmangler
and Crisco names we 'affectionately' call these boxes...

Someone else had mentioned a second counter that could be reset. I like
this idea. That way you have the original so you have total and though
the PMxs don't have time a utility you use to grab these stats could
timestamp the reset time etc..
