The same as resetting counters
An alias of reset counters: resets the same statistics counters from the show status output.
The main trap is expecting it to reset the node’s “status”. Despite the name, the command touches neither queues, nor modes, nor disabled addresses — only statistics counters.
What the Hub does. It does not call it.
Recommended values
When to use it:
| Question | This command or not |
|---|---|
| reset statistics counters | yes — the same as reset counters |
| take a queue out of backoff mode | no — set queue |
| bring back disabled addresses | no — enable source |
The alias comes from the manual (§ 6.3.7). The trap analysis is ours.
