Natasha, I love that name...anyway here is the definition: Throttle - Number of times the receiver on the port was disabled, possibly due to buffer or processor overload.

Re: OK. I feel dumb but asking anyway
Natasha , When the input queue is overflown ( this is process switched traffic , it needs cpu intervention ) and the router is dropping packets because of a queue full condition ( 76/75 ) then the interface is throttled . On low end platforms the router stops processing interrupts from that interface and all packets are dropped ( the router does not increase the drops or ignores counter on that interface when it throttles ). High end platforms behave different . It will still fast switch traffic but it is not allowed to enqueue packets to process level when the interface is in a throttle condition . It is a defensive behavior . In general throttles are bad . To much process switched traffic or to much junk flying in the routers direction flem --- Natasha [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: When doing a (show int) on a 2500 part of the output says "shinterface" I hope that's show interface!
