Explanation
This message indicates that ingress traffic on the indicated port and queue is being discarded. This is
due either to the configured maximum ingress peak-rate being exceeded or congestion due to excessive
traffic on other ports in the same oversubscription group.
Action
Use the show port 1:1 ingress stats detail command to view the measured ingress statistics on
all the queues for the selected port (see the ExtremeWare Command Reference Guide to understand the
output). Use the
show ports <portlist> utilization command to view the ingress rates on ports
in the same oversubscription group to determine if discards are due to oversubscription congestion.
If the discards are due to rate-limiting, use the
config qosprofile ingress command to alter the
peak ingress rates, if desired.
If the discards are due to oversubscription congestion from other ports, consider spreading out the
highest traffic ports to different oversubscription groups.
