Subject: How do I get protocol statistics on a per-networking-interface level ?

Can anyone tell me how to get per-protocol based statistics (e.g., for
udp or ip protocols),
but on a per-network-interface level?
netstat has the -p <protocol> option, as well as the -I <interface>
option,
but it seems that when I use the -p option, the -I option is ignored,
and I get stats for all interfaces for the specified protocol.
Am I not using netstat correctly, or are there other tools out there?
thanks,
Dave

Netstat(1) has counters; will these do the trick? Beyond that, look at
pkgsrc/net/ntop.
