Hi When i ran the below command on vicidial dialer:

MQS was also less 2.59 where as it should be around 5.0. are packets being dropped at interface card or at kernel and how to correct it. on net i found: So "1000 packets captured" means, in Tethereal and tcpdump, "1000 packets read from libpcap and processed". What "100 packets dropped" means is that, of all the packets supplied to the kernel's packet capture mechanism that passed the filter, 100 of them were dropped because there wasn't enough room in the kernel's buffer for them; this means that packets aren't being read from the kernel's capture mechanism fast enough by the application. dmesg output: Linux version 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp ([EMAIL PROTECTED] ) (gcc version 4.0.0 20050525 (Red Hat 4.0.0-9)) #1 SMP Thu Jun 2 23:08:39 EDT 2005 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009fc00 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000000009fc00 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000000e8000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 000000003f7e4000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000003f7e4000 - 0000000040000000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000d0000000 - 00000000e0000000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000fec00000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) 119MB HIGHMEM available. 896MB LOWMEM available. found SMP MP-table at 000fe700 Using x86 segment limits to approximate NX protection On node 0 totalpages: 260068 DMA zone: 4096 pages, LIFO batch:1 Normal zone: 225280 pages, LIFO batch:31 HighMem zone: 30692 pages, LIFO batch:15 DMI 2.3 present.
