Hi, here is the output of the command, it is not either giving me the Live traffic or past history on traffic(Ex: traffic on 22 MAr, 2008)

Thank you,

This is somewhat live traffic:

5 minute input rate 5663000 bits/sec, 1117 packets/sec

5 minute output rate 5696000 bits/sec, 1025 packets/sec

We use Cacti for monitoring traffic history. I don't think there is a way to monitor past traffic on a switch.
