What sort of interface is it?

if its ethernet and you connect to your provider on it, make sure you verify the duplex settingss. some providers set their interface to "auto" rather then hard set . This can cause CRC errors and no drops, but serious performance degradation.

Agree with Alain, but want to emphasis it should be a very small percentage.

Cisco says (for serial lines):

Note

Any  input error value for cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors, framing  errors, or aborts above 1 percent of the total interface traffic  suggests some kind of link problem that should be isolated and repaired.

Personally I prefer no worst than 1 in 1,000 or even better 1 in 10,000.

Hi,

Yes it could be as long as they are a small percentage of total input packets.

Regards.
