Interface discards

Hi,

Need some help figuring out what is causing the interface discards and how to solve this behaviour.

Thanks in advance.

Key points:

1: No QoS on the switch

2: This switch only passes multicast traffic to a cat4500

Interfce config:

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/49

description => SECURITY

switchport trunk allowed vlan 8,9

switchport mode trunk

channel-group 1 mode active

interface Port-channel1

description => SECURITY

switchport trunk allowed vlan 8,9

switchport mode trunk

Interface stats:

SW2#sh int g1/0/49

GigabitEthernet1/0/49 is up, line protocol is up (connected)

  Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet, address is 64ae.0c75.29b1 (bia 64ae.0c75.29b1)

Run this command constantly for 5-10 times and you will see different (bogus) values of output drops and if so, upgrade to 15.0.2. I did the upgrade and it went away. Please rate the helpful post.

sh int g1/0/49 | i output drops

Thanks Nawas,

I had upgraded a couple of switches 2 weeks ago for another reason and they are not reporting the bogus drops as they used too.
