Is there a way to find out of order packets on a switch?

I need to know if there is a way to find "out of order" packets in a switch. Is there a show command that will do this?

Thanks

No, there is not. Not even a router is able to detect that. You have to rely on end system tools.

Thanks for the response, but what kind of end system tools would you be talking about?

To begin with, netstat -s

Then you have netmon, wireshark, etc.
