[c-nsp] Gigabit Interface Input Errors

[Drew Weaver]

Hi,

I noticed I'm seeing some Input errors on a gigabit ethernet interface:

70 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 70 overrun, 0 ignored

the number of input errors seems to increment along with the overrun counter which I assume means that the actual errors are overrun errors.

Does anyone have any tips on finding out what is causing it to overrun?

My first inclination is to assume it is not a huge problem because of the amount of packets that are flowing through this interface:

2367831951 packets input, 247924231216 bytes, 0 no buffer 70 out of 2367831951 is a fairly small number but I wanted to check and see if you all had any thoughts.

thanks,
-Drew
