%FW-4-TCP_OoO_SEG: Dropping TCP Segment

network770 — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 22:37:56 GMT

Any idea what this means? Why are these packets being dropped?

Ronni,

It looks like you are running some firewall inspection features on your router. What's happening is your out-of-order queue is getting full and dropping packets.

One thing you can try is increasing the queue size:

ip inspect tcp reassembly queue length

I would suggest starting with a size of about 80 to see if it has any effect on the logs. If you are still seeing an issue, could you provide a 'show ip inspect statistics' and any relevant configuration?

Thanks!

Joey
