Quoting Peter Rathlev <[email protected]>:


Drops on account of MTU wouldn't show up as errors in your end.
Only way
to see them was to look for "giant frames" on the other end.

If your drop counter increases you have to look at why. Look at
"show
interface Gi0/X counters errors". If they're OutDiscards, look at
"show
platform port-asic stats drop Gi0/X". Maybe adjust the QoS model.
(Even
with QoS disabled it uses queueing.)

 Yes - they are outdiscards:

 #sh interface gigabitEthernet 0/1 counters errors

Port        Align-Err     FCS-Err    Xmit-Err     Rcv-Err  UnderSize 
OutDiscards
Gi0/1               0           0           0           0         
0      3489015

Port      Single-Col  Multi-Col   Late-Col  Excess-Col 
Carri-Sen      Runts     Giants
Gi0/1              0          0          0           0         
0          0          0

 #sh platform port-asic stats drop gigabitEthernet 0/1

  Interface Gi0/1 TxQueue Drop Statistics
    Queue 0
      Weight 0 Frames 0
      Weight 1 Frames 0
      Weight 2 Frames 0
    Queue 1
      Weight 0 Frames 5387809
      Weight 1 Frames 251
      Weight 2 Frames 0
    Queue 2
      Weight 0 Frames 139
      Weight 1 Frames 0
      Weight 2 Frames 0
    Queue 3
      Weight 0 Frames 0
      Weight 1 Frames 0
      Weight 2 Frames 0

 The drops only occur when there is egress data - Minimal
traffic(i.e 10Mb/sec) I see counters increase
If the ISP link is 100 Mbps, the other links are 1 Gbps and traffic
is
primarily in their direction you might've run into the much
discussed-about buffering on the 3560 platform.

 Yes - As stated above, it is only egress traffic that appears to
cause the drops - but we start to see the drops with only minimal
traffic running over the link?

 Thanks for your assistance.
