Ive tried to post on this topic before .. this odd "Tx-DROP" counter on my CRS3X switches.. I see them all the time.
Now in this case I do have a 1 gig internet connection that im Accepting on a NetFiber Crs310-in on the copper port, from what I understand it is connected to the switch chip and I can take advantage of hardware offload. And from there I am sending a 1 gig link to my CRS326-24SFP+. Hits my CCR2116. Now connecting from the same CRS326 I have now vlan'd from the CCR2116 I have connected my computer using a Copper module for testing.
Now I know this is a bit confusing but I made a map to maybe help understand how everything connects.
Now when doing speed test from the computer I get INSANE TX-DROP counters. I dont understand why. Even after resetting the counters and doing more conservative iperf3s-.(not hitting the 1gig interface limit, this happens even when doing 400m). the drops still show up.. I mean into the Millions and super fast. the network just got set up so I dont have really real world issue yet. but I mean Im desperate to understand what that is..
Copper SFP is the Mikrotik S+RJ10
Ive written the ROS version as a text over each device.
I went to each and set channel to stable and upgraded to the one it chose.
Any insight would GREATLY be appreciated..
Thought id add the iPerf.. happens in the upload direction.
iperf3 -c myiperf.server -u -b 200m
and tried with multiple streams -P 2
