Solved: CSCsj26883 - CISCO Bug - Recommendation Required

guruprasadr · ‎05-05-2008

Hello Experts,

Refer to CISCO Bug: CSCsj26883

/sh int/ on MLP Bundle interface shows 100% input errors

Symptom: on a multilink bundle interface, the output from "show interface" will show an input error count which includes essentially 100% of the traffic being received. Other drop counters, usually the "bad frame" counter, are also incremented to match.

For example:

# show interface Multilink1

Multilink1 is up, line protocol is up

Hardware is multilink group interface

Internet address is 10.20.0.1/30

MTU 1500 bytes, BW 3072 Kbit, DLY 100000 usec,

reliability 181/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255

Encapsulation PPP, LCP Open, multilink Open

...

5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

6080 packets input, 1027997 bytes, 0 no buffer

Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles

6077 input errors, 0 CRC, 6077 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort

^^^^ ^^^^

Impact: Very Low. This is an accounting error; the counters are being accidentally incremented each time Multilink begins to receive a new datagram. This does not affect actual traffic flow or operation of the bundle, it is only the statistics that are in error.

Workaround: none.

My Router Reliability Status:

==============================

Router#sh int Mu 1 | in reliability

reliability 140/255, txload 23/255, rxload 86/255

My Question:

============

What is meant by an "accounting error" that has been described in the BUG details.

Can someone please provide some Recommendation on this BUG. What is the next course of Action should i take forward ?

show Log for your Reference:

============================

The Input Errors are continuously increasing but the CISCO Bug says it doesnot affect the actual traffic flow or operation of Bundle.

How do i get it confirmed that my actual traffic is not getting impacted ? Is there any possible way to verify the same.
