Cat 4006 Packet loss

d-popescu

Level 1

Hi,

We are having a CAT 4006 (IOS ver.) Switch with two VALN's(Data and Voice) and we are getting packet loss without QoS configured and no packet loss with QoS configured.

If you look into interface you won't see anything out of the ordinary, but if you

try : Cat> sh int fast2/23 summ

you will see the Packet Drops from Output Queue OQD=26900 and we kind of wondering what is causing these.

We went to do some search on Cisco.com and at this point we couldn't get an answer to this issue.

I am wondering if someone has this issue and what was the fix?

Cat 4006 has SUP 2+ , no spanning tree and IOS:

Could you check whether rate limiting is enabled in the switch ,if it is enabled then the functionality will be same as QOS.

Rate limiting is the same thing as Qos policing in cat4000 it mark frames/packets going through the switch as confirming and non-confirming.Non-confirming frames/packets will be drop.

Hi,

We do not have rate limiting configured into CAT 4006.

Also I am wondering way the packet loss shows up only in "sh int fast2/22 summ" and not into "sh int fast 2/22 count err" . At this point is still a puzzle to me. If someone has seeing this in the past please let me know what was the fix?

Best,

Mike
