Hi All,

There are 2 fields in port statistics Rx_ dropped and Tx_dropped. In an
application am trying to create, for testing, I need a way to get this
drops simulated somehow.

I am using a simulated topology using Mininet and NOX controller. I tried
adding a link drop using " --link tc,loss=10 " in mininet. Packets are
dropped when I do a ping. But this does not reflect on the rx_dropped or
tx_dropped fields in the stats of any of the port, which I observe from the
multipart reply.

I added meters to flows added in the switch with drop meter band. I could
see packets hitting the band and getting dropped. But I do not see any
tx_drop or rx_drop updated. Is there any way I can see this stats updated.
I always get these as zero.

Please help out if you know  a solution to this.

Regards

Anoop
