Jeff, Thanks for the info. I know of one sure way to reset the stats is to upgrade the cards in the box. Do you know which card keeps these stats or where they are located? They have to be stored somewhere right?

How do you reset the stats on the old style TCH? I have tried every thing I know to reset the stats. I can't find anything in documentation to tell me how to do this. The stats that I am trying to reset are the ones you can get through the performance monitor in the Total Control Management software. Specifically, I am trying to reset the Incoming Connections Established, Incoming Connections Terminated, Connect Attempt Failure, and the Incoming Connections Failed fields under the Modem Events in the Functional Group. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Reboot. And even then, in theory, they shouldn't reset.
Basically, this is because of the spec of SNMP...SNMP counters can't be reset while the system is running...to get a delta you have to note what it is currently and check it later and subtract...not terribly difficult in the overall scheme of things unless the utility that you're using (ie, TCM) isn't open source (*cough*) and doesn't have support for it.
In theory, according to my understanding of the SNMP spec, even a reboot shouldn't clear the stats, they should be persistant. Not that much of anyone pays attention to that in their SNMP agent implementations. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
