Description Traffic shaping considerations
Scope

FortiGate units running FortiOS version 4.0 MR3 or 5.0.x

Solution

To ensure that traffic shaping is working at its best, verify that the Ethernet interface statistics are clean of errors, collisions, and buffer overruns. If these are not clean, then FortiGate unit and switch settings may require adjusting. For details, see the Fortinet Knowledge Base article How to best configure Ethernet (Full/Half duplex, Auto-negotiation) settings.

The following CLI commands display Ethernet interface statistics:
 
diagnose netlink device list
 
diagnose netlink interface list
 
diagnose hardware deviceinfo nic
