[e-nsp] Super strange issue

[Gunjan GANDHI]

The first thing that comes to mind is a broadcast storm. Are you sure
there are no L2 loops in your topology?

What is the box connected to?
Are you running any QoS, ping is a very bad method of determining
traffic behaviors as it is always Best Effort.
You talk about a outside box, I assume this is a client connected to the
switch. Is it possible to run mirroring on that port and observe the
traffic patterns when the ping times spike? 

Cheers

Ok,

I've been trying to figure this out for a couple days now.

I have 2 BD6808's.  Every 30 minutes ping times spike across them to
300-400ms for a minute and a half.  During this time the Nettask on the
outside box jumps to 60-70.  There are no traffic or pps anomalies.

I know this isn't a lot of info but anyone seen an issue like this
before?

Aaron
