Did you mean the statistics on switch ?
Yes Output queue 0/40, 0 drops; input queue 0/75, 0 drops 5 minute input rate 6031000 bits/sec, 877 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 3104000 bits/sec, 1160 packets/sec 1631516276 packets input, 4237296754 bytes Received 161839 broadcasts, 212836721 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 212836725 input errors, 0 CRC, 4 frame, 0 overrun, 84223 ignored 0 watchdog, 0 multicast 0 input packets with dribble condition detected 194910163 packets output, 3947790078 bytes, 0 underruns 0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets 0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred 0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier 0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out
No, it doesn't affect the switch statistic because bug is in receive part of FreeBSD driver - it doesn't affect packets sent out to switch.It doesnt seem to affect performance. When I did some benchmarks way back with netperf, the difference in vlan performance vs native fxp performance was barely significant.
