Hardware-based GRE tunnel interface counters are supported on the DCS-7050X4 platform family starting from EOS-4.36.1 release. When GRE tunnels are configured and traffic is hardware-forwarded, per-tunnel packet and byte counters are available for both ingress (decapsulation) and egress (encapsulation) directions. The hardware tunnel counters are disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled using the `hardware counter feature` CLI command. The ingress and egress counters can be enabled independently.
