Hi,
a customer is using the following MIB to monitor a WAN interface
RFC1213-MIB:ifOutDiscards
OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.19
and reports lot of errors to me ...
If I check on the the router I cannot see many output drops on the WAN interface
Could it be that we are facing any kind of IOS bug here as we already know that the 7304 IOS versions are not always teh best :-(

Are you saying the ifOutDiscards value is much larger than the "Total output drops: 37688" seen in "show interface"? If so, one possibility is since ifOutDiscards is a 32-bit number, and you say there're a "lot of errors", so between the time you snmpwalk ifOutDiscards and you run "show interface", it has rolled over (reset to 0, then start incrementing again).
