I was looking at the netstats for my firewall/NAT box, and noticed that it shows the following: Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll pn0 1500 <Link> 00.a0.cc.39.93.a9 1821536 1725 1349529 2072 0 pn0 1500 c2-128.xtlab. www 1821536 1725 1349529 2072 0 pn1 1500 <Link> 00.a0.cc.3a.59.fc 1434045 0 1855611 167620 0 pn1 1500 tyan/24 router.zuhause. 1434045 0 1855611 167620 0 pn0 is connected to the DSL modem, and pn1 is connected to a switching hub, and is configured for 100 baseTX full duplex and is connected to a 10/100 switching ethernet hub. This is saying over 9% of the packets sent have errors! What should I look at to determine exactly what is causing these errors? The switch indicates that all of my NICs are 100 baseTX full duplex, and I know they're configured that way. I don't see any input errors on the other FreeBSD boxes connected to the switch. I also have a Windows 98 box connected to the switch, but if there's any way to detect ethernet media errors with it, I'm not aware of it.
