Hi,

i get a strange error, i get "input errors" on the span destination port. In this port is connected another switch, so is normal that's some input packets (stp, mcast, bcast, cdp ...) but why "input errors".

here is the output of the "sh int "

GigabitEthernet3/46 is up, line protocol is down (monitoring)

Hardware is C6k 1000Mb 802.3, address is 001b.d50e.3bdd (bia 001b.d50e.3bdd)

Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set

Full-duplex, 100Mb/s

input flow-control is off, output flow-control is off

Clock mode is auto

ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00

Last input never, output never, output hang never

This can occur when a port connected to a sever or other heavily used device receives too much data from other switch ports. When this occurs the data will be dropped and re-transmission can occur.

Issue the show port [mod/port] command in order to verify that the speed/duplex settings are same on both end of the connected interface.

Issue the show port jumbo command in order to check that the MTU settings, if any, are configured in that device.

Hi,

altually it's due to the hardware difference of the line cards and supervisors.

it's just a cosmetic problem
