I have mentioned this to Brian, be he seems to busy to make a patch. This
is a real simple patch but I just don't have the time. This patch would
impliment a function, "clear", that can clear certain parts of the ppp
program. For example,
PPP ON engulf> show ipcp
[cut]
Connect time: 94127 secs
51910598 octets in, 52787565 octets out
overall 1111 bytes/sec
currently 467 bytes/sec
peak 15804 bytes/sec on <blah> (Now call me crazy, but
that is one hell of a 56k
connection...)
PPP ON engulf>
The function, would apear as this.
PPP ON engulf> clear peak
peak cleared (was 15804 bytes/sec established on ______)
PPP ON engulf> show ipcp
[cut]
Connect time: 94128 secs
51910598 octets in, 52787565 octets out
overall 1111 bytes/sec
currently 467 bytes/sec
peak 8 bytes/sec on <new date> (Now call me crazy, but
that is one hell of a 56k
connection...)
Also, for vanity reasons, lets convert secs to minutes, hours, days, etc.
Save the time it takes to do a quick bc. My second question, 56kbps is a
large way of saying 7kBps, so how am I downloading 15.8kBps?
P.S, clear all would clear the overall, currently, and peak. This
function would involve setting the variable to null, in order for it to
re-tally.
