The stats below show a large amount of input errors on an interface. Cisco's definition below is not very specific and most of the defined causes can be discounted as they have 0 counts in the stats. To help track this down please could you advise on what constitutes an 'abort' and what 'Other input-related errors' could be?
Cisco's definition of Input Errors:
"Total number of no buffer, runts, giants, CRCs, frame, overrun, ignored, and abort counts. Other input-related errors can also increment the count, so that this sum might not balance with the other counts."
