	No. Counter zeroing is something we've moved away from a long time ago. To find out how much has happened over a time interval, take a sample, wait, take another, and subtract. (Some tools do this for you.) Both Phase V management and SNMP management omit the zero function, for the same reason: it adds no new capability (see above) but does introduce confusion when multiple managers try to gather data. paul
