[nsp] Strange IOS behaviour

[Warren Kumari]

Hi,

Actually, I saw this happening on packet counter, not error counter, 
but yes, you can get that many errors (esp if you have lost clocking / 
syncronization)

If it has been happening for 90 days, you only need 552 per second 
(2^32 / (24*60*60*90) = 552) which is not unreasonable, esp on PoS. The 
error counters are not per interval, they get cleared by "clear count" 
or reloads, etc.
