CPview RX value is weird

weisoon — Mon, 22 Sep 2025 11:04:30 GMT

Hi All,

I had bond interface named bond0 with its slave interface eth1-04 & eth1-05, and there is multiple vlan subinterface under bond0
When I observe RX throughput in CPview, I saw an strange behaviour whereby bond0 has value around 800Mbps to 1000Mbps, but there is zero value for its all vlan subinterfaces.

In TX, it appear normal whereby TX value of its bond0 subinterfaces has non-zero value.

The output of netstat -ni shows there is RX packet in its bond0 subinterfaces.

Is this firewall hitting any bug of cpview?
Firewall version is R81.20 with JHF take 92.

Thanks.

Please confirm the appliance model and NIC type used?

When SecureXL works in the User Mode (UPPAK), traffic statistics on the Security Gateway do not contain packets and bytes for connections that are accelerated in hardware.

This applies to:

CPView > Network > Interfaces > Traffic.

Output of the "fwaccel stats -s" command.

Traffic statistics for the physical interface contains packets and bytes for connections that are accelerated in hardware for all VLAN interfaces configured on this physical interface.

The model is Quantum Force 9300 Security Gateway and the interface bond0 is at NIC CPAC-8-1/10F-D that connected with SFP+ transceiver 10GBASE-T RJ45 (Copper).

I would open a TAC case to make sure

I would install recommended jumbo for starters, which is take 113. Now, just for comparison, was this value different beforehand or you just noticed it now?

Any hints in the HCP report regarding the bond setup?
