CISCO ROUTER 3845 CONSTANTLY SHOWS DISCARD PAQUETS AT WAN INTERFACE

Dear Sirs.

 

We have an 3845 cisco router which constantly shows discard paquets at wan interface.

there is not: saturation, CRC´s and any other anomalies at wan interface.

The IOS of the router is:

"flash:c3845-adventerprisek9-mz.151-3.T4.bin"

and the configuration of the wan interface is:

!

Would you be mind telling us if we need to change the IOS due possible bugs or maybe failure at wan interface?

 

Thanks allot.

replace patchcord

 

and see again

Hi ,

 

we are arrange to replace the cable, also.

 

thanks very much.

Dear Tagir.

 

We have changed the patch cord but the level of dropped paquet increments.

In the meanwhile we have arranged to change the model of router for the first quarter of 2015.

thank allot for your support.

You don't need to saturate a link to encounter drops.

What's your service-policy look like and what are its stats?

Hi Joseph.

the service policy is applied at giga interface.0/0

Our provider TELEFONICA have configured the policies and have configured as best-efford the police for DATA.

At GRUPO ROMERO, all router has police: GOLDEN for VOICE (voz) and SILVER for DATA.

But for this router, they used best efford to overcome the discarded paquets which I think is wrong.

 

waiting your sooner answer.,

Hmm, your class-default only has a queue-limit of 64 packets, and per flow queue limit of 16 packets.   Stats show as flowdrops.  This is likely much too shallow for a 100 Mbps port.

Hi Joseph.

 

i appreciate your comments, but what can we do about it?

 

what is the best value for the queues and if we change them this will cause´ link down?

What can you do about it?  Adjust queue-limit (if supported).

What's best values for queues?  That's an "it depends".  For a single TCP flow to be able to support path maximum bandwidth, buffers (queue-limit) needs to support BDP.

Will changing queue values take link down?  Normally, no, but you might impact a some "inflight" packets.
