Model: ER707-M2  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.3 Build 20240822 Rel.52946

Under Insights => Switch Status I can see port details incouding counters for all of my switch ports. I cannot, however, find any way to view these same stats for the ports on my ER707-M2 router. I'm especially interested in checking TX/RX error counters for my WAN uplink, but am also curious about the other ports, especially the 2.5G ports.

Where can I view this same type of stat but for router ports rather than switch ports?

 

Switch port counters stat view - what's the router equivalent:

Hi @daubstep 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

Thanks  @Clive_A - is there already a feature request for this? These stats must exist and just need to be exposed in the UI I assume? Do you know of a way via CLI or SNMP to access the router's port stats? (every managed network device I've ever seen has some way to retrieve these stats).

No requests like this in years. People I came across till now seem to only care about the WAN traffic instead of the LAN.

 

I think SNMP can retrieve that information but not very positive. I came across similar some screenshots from SNMP before.

CLI does not display that data. The traffic gathering is done and separated and charted by IP addresses if you are in standalone mode. No count for the ports.

The router does not support it.
