Thanks Aaron. Are you able to please supply some information on the fields I am seeing?

 

ingress_avg: 100 ingress_red: 0 ingress_drops: 0 egress_drops: 921

I have done a Google search for "tmm/if_shaper" and get NOTHING, I have also searched DevCentral and F5.com and get nothing - this is clearly an obscure "table", thanks for identifying it.

 

Rowan
