Hello,

I have a machine with the T1 adapter and 2 Intel Etherexpress 10/100B
adapters and I've noticed that when Ierrs on fxp1 appear the router begins
to start dropping packets and strange things happen:

1. An NFS mount ceases to perform.
2. Eventually pings stop happening.

When I reboot the router everthing is fine for around 4 days. Here is my
netstat -in:

Name  Mtu   Network       Address            Ipkts Ierrs    Opkts Oerrs  Coll

Questions:

1. What would produce any Ierrs, how are they produced?
2. Is this possibly a driver issue (I'm pushing an average of 5mbit
throughput)?
3. I've changed the adapters out and no difference, can this be a problem
of having two of the same adapters and PCI?

Thoughts/comments?

Thank you,
Randy Katz
