Hello Michael, It is no uncommon for leased lines to have errors, especially those inflicted by the provider... >Should I be worried about the magnitude of any of these counts or >about the disparity between the two directions? I do not think the magnitude is a great problem. Did you ever disconnect the serial cable from the cisco during this week? If you disconnect the cable, the interface may see additional aborts. If the cable has never left the cisco, and the link was always operational during the week, the question to ask is: Is the rate of errors greater than 1% of the total amount of data transfered? If the numbers you showed us conern the transmission of 200Kb over the link, you may have a problem. If the numbers relate to 800Mb transfered over the link, you might not have any concerns. Thanks, Allan Leinwand cisco Systems leinwand@cisco.com (415) 688-7653 "Time was invented so that everything does not happen at once." - Buckaroo Banzai

I'm interested in knowing what the performance of a dds line as measured by cisco 'show interface' statistics should look like. We have recently installed the first of many such lines. Twelve days of operation shows the following statistics... A -> B B -> A Input errors 77 3215 Abort 76 3213 Output errors 0 0 resets 0 0 carrier transitions 10 2 Things like CRC, frame, over run, and ignore are always zero. There have been no user complaints about the operation of the line. Should I be worried about the magnitude of any of these counts or about the disparity between the two directions?
