This Counter64 field reports the bytes transmitted per second on the forward direction of this bidirectional CES tunnel, as computed for this PM instance. Because this Stats row carries no Duration or State field at all, unlike the Curr/History bins — it is a running tally since the last manual clear rather than a fixed-length interval, and this specific field is an instantaneous computed rate of transmitted egress traffic rather than a running total, so a spike here shows up the moment it happens rather than only after the interval ends, it is the field to check when you need to see the forward-direction egress throughput of the tunnel right now rather than a cumulative volume. For example, this counter might read 6,861 bytes/sec during the period since the last manual clear — a sudden jump to several times that on the forward side, with no matching rise on the other direction, would point to a one-way traffic surge or an attack riding that leg of the tunnel.
