You can view virtual server and pool statistics from the command line using the show command, rather than list. For example, to show traffic statistics for a virtual server named http_vs:

(tmos)# show /ltm virtual http_vs

To show traffic statistics for all members in the pool named http_pool:

(tmos)# show /ltm pool http_pool members

You can reset statistics for a particular pool, pool member, or virtual server using the reset-stats command. For example, to reset statistics for a virtual server http_vs:

(tmos)# reset-stats /ltm virtual http_vs

Hope this helps!
