Re: [c-nsp] giant packets troubleshooting
Just to be aware, there has been a cosmetic bug on many cisco platforms two years ago that clasified all dot1q trunked frame as giants.

Dear Palis check interface MTU configuration and its default state from both sides best regards --Ibrahim On Tue, Jul 15, 2008 at 9:22 AM, Michalis Palis [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On one link for example where we have an etherchannel between a GSR and a 4510 switch, we see a lot of giant packets on the router side and no giant packets on the switch side - Original Message - From: Pavel Skovajsa [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Michalis Palis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 9:09 AM Subject: Re: [c-nsp] giant packets troubleshooting Just to be aware, there has been a cosmetic bug on many cisco platforms two years ago that clasified all dot1q trunked frame as giants.
