[c-nsp] How to find the root cause of packet loss

[tkapela at gmail.com]

Toss a pair of hosts, one at gig, one at faste, on the 2970 -- then run iperf -c -P 50 / -s on either host, and tell *us* what you see for discards out the slower of the two interfaces.

If you've got the gear, it should seem that the best information might be from actual testing vs non-existent specs.

Any idea how the EOSed 2970 performs in terms of buffers and
bursts? I have some of those in stock and wondering where to
put them next.
