Scott, It would seem like this is backwards from your perspective. But, are you monitoring the port on the server side, the client side, or the backplane of the switch? Are you also monitoring the port of the server where the web server is running? It could be that you are seeing the inbound bytes and because it is a switch, snmp doesn't pick up on any other traffic on the outbound side. Or, it could be that the inbound and outbound counters just need to be flipped.
