Dear Group, I'm sure this has been touched on before but I need a refresher on just how error indications on Intermapper relate to the actual hardware being monitored.
Specifically we have a site that has two switches connected at 100 full. Often the link between the switches will be "bubbling" away. Open status and it will say something like 4000 discards a minute (and higher). When I telnet to the switch and show stats on the interface the only errors I see are 16 FCS errors. Not quite the 4000+ I expected to see. So what do I trust? How do I explain to other support personnel just what it means when IM says that but the actual hardware says something else? Especially bosses - they want to see that IM is actually worth having but if we can't trust what we see - then what? All opinions welcome. regards, Kevin ____________________________________________________________________ List archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/intermapper-talk%40list.dartware.com/ To unsubscribe: send email to: [email protected]
