    show ip int brief

    Te0/0/0                unassigned      YES   NVRAM     up        up
    Te0/0/1                unassigned      YES   NVRAM     up        up
    GigabitEthernet0/0/0   unassigned      YES   NVRAM     up        up
    GigabitEthernet0/0/1   unassigned      YES   NVRAM     up        up

    show interfaces summary 
  3. Verify the interface counters:

    show interfaces <interface-name> 
  4. Verify that traffic is classified by NBAR (CBAR):

    sh ip nbar protocol-discovery stats packet-count
