Packets being dropped on uplinks of CE6851

 Alarm Information

 The burst traffic extend buff with packets loss logs:

 Handling Process

1.         From the logs we found there have many packets drop:

ToR-1：From Aug  7 2018 there have packets drop in 10GE1/0/48.

Aug  7 2018 14:28:21+03:00 HQ-ToR-1 %%01QOS/6/QOS_PACKET_DROP(l):CID=0x807f042d;The forwarding engine detects packet discard.(Slot=1, Discard place=Panel Port Ifindex[52] Queue[0], Current discard=781)

ToR-2：From Aug 29 2018 there have packets drop in 10GE1/0/48.

Aug 29 2018 13:09:42+03:00 DR-ToR-2 %%01QOS/6/QOS_PACKET_DROP(l):CID=0x807f042d;The forwarding engine detects packet discard.(Slot=1, Discard place=Panel Port Ifindex[52] Queue[0], Current discard=1274)

burst traffic extend and packets drop:

2.         From the configuration we found customer have 6*10ge port connect to server, But there only 1*10GE as a uplink, If there have any burst traffic.it will cause the drop in milliseconds.

3.         The burst traffic extend buff with packets loss logs:

 Root Cause

The burst traffic extend buffering cause the packets drop

 Solution

1.         Enable the traffic buffering to the enhanced mode in discard port example: (interface which face the packets drop issue)
