Hi MinChi,

thanks for reporting this, we haven't actually had the chance to play around
with a NEC switch and hadn't come across this so far. So just to clarify,
when you request port stats, does the NEC switch send back one message per
port?
It looks like we should tweak it to multiplex the messages and parse/present
them as one.
