Guys,

I tried increasing the input queue (up to 2048) with no results, input
flushes keep going up. Users still experiencing really bad VoIP
performance in that WAN link...

clear the counters and get a few snapshots of sh int stat

with:

term exec prompt time

on...

Compare the process to fast cache counters...



Rodney, I didn't turn off SPD as I'm not sure if that is going to break
other stuff. This is a production head office main ISR router...
Any ideas?

Disable it..it will not change anything for the user traffic.

If they are seeing poor voice quality you need to double check the direction and what class the traffic is matching along with the corresponding 'sh policy-map int' output for it.




Thanks again,
J

    12.4(13r)T, we have a policy-map with 4 classes:

    And sh int stats:

    Chars Out

    2964930240



    I'll increase the interface input queue and monitor for a few hours.

            Of course, these counters are increasing and we have a bunch

        What is your policy doing on that interface for the output drops?

        sh policy-map interface gig 0/1

        What does 'sh int stat' show...the input queue is only for
        process switched traffic so you need to figure that out?

        What code?...12.4(20)T and later you can do an EPC trace on the
        punt path coming in the interface to see what traffic it is.

        Or try to catch the packets in 'sh buffers input-interface gig
        0/1 packet'



            Should we increase the input queue size to 150,200,250, etc
            ? Could these
            flushed/drops be the cause of the poor VoIP performance?


        Yeah..set it to the max of 4096.

        Rodney


            Many thanks,
