[c-nsp] non-existing input errors on 6500/SXI...?

[Gert Doering]

Hi,

I have a one port on a 7603/sup32/SXI that is showing me "input errors" 
but refuses to tell what *sort* of errors...

GigabitEthernet1/9 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
...

so, right, it's "Rcv-Err", but what sort of errors?  Nothing in any of
the other columns, and operationally, the link is behaving perfectly normal,
so I'm not overly worried - just annoyed by our NMS flagging the link as
"hey, errors, check!" all the time...

This is a Sup32, onboard GE, SXI3.  The interface goes to a 2960G, about
2m of cat6 cable, nothing particularily exciting.

interface GigabitEthernet1/9
 description SW: sp1/xxx:g0/14 (sp1)
 switchport
 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 2-999
 switchport mode trunk
 storm-control broadcast level 1.00

and the other end is symmetric:

interface GigabitEthernet0/14
 description SW: sp1/xxx:gi1/9 (sp1)
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 2-21,23-999
 switchport mode trunk
 storm-control broadcast level pps 1k 100
 storm-control multicast level pps 1k 100
 storm-control action trap
end


... so how to figure out where these errors are coming from?

(No smartnet on this particular box, so I can't go ask TAC)
