      I haven't experienced this before, but is your session timed out?

        It's always done this for me (negative values for interface-out).  I assumed it was by design.

          Yes, but his screenshot is strange where the y axis has no units. Overall something smells off, but the text with "session timeout" sounds like they needed to fresh the page.

            Yes, I've had this same issue where the table doesn't update.  A refresh fixes it all up.

              Not sure about that. I am trying to monitor 2 different network on one pfsense.

                I am still getting this after a refresh.

                  Are the interface actually working?  Your talking to the interface - so your sure there is actually in out traffic, its just not showing in the graph?

                  You can turn off inverse if you don't like it..

                    This is not a bug, and it's not showing "negative" values. The default rendering simply shows outgoing traffic underneath and incoming traffic on top instead of overlaying both on the top. It's controlled by the "Inverse" setting in the graph.

                    Picture attached.

                      But what is odd is not showing any in the other direction also.. Maybe its really really low?  But think there is a something wrong where he is only seeing 1 half of the traffic.. As I already stated if you don't want to see the inverse you can just turn that off..

                        Hi, thanks for your reply. May I know how do I check if I am "talking" to the interface?

                        For the graph turning off the inverse is not the main issue. Main issue is that does not show any activities….

                          That is what it looks like to me as well which is really odd..

                          What does say

                          show you for your interfaces traffic?  What about say something like
