## Symptoms

- * *cpstat fw* and SmartView Monitor show different interfaces.
* Whatever traffic is seen on eth0, is copied to eth1. Then after a few seconds, the eth0 counter "freezes", and now we see eth1 packets number increasing.
* The last interface (can be vlan tagged interface) in the view will show two entries for In and Out direction (for the same interface)
