A customer wants to connect a group of servers to different Brocade VDXs in a three switch Brocade VDX 6740 fabric. All servers should have one gateway and should failover if one switch is taken offline for maintenance. The individual VDX should forward all packets to the destination from the VDX that receives them.
How should this solution be implemented?
You are asked to provide time-based sampling of interface counters and statistical sampling of switched packets.
Which protocol supports these requirements?
As a network administrator, you see a very high number of receive discards in the interface statistics of an ISL within your VCS fabric. After further investigation, the discards are found to be incrementing due to tail drops.
(Truncated example of the interface stats)
Receive Statistics:
1632132 packets, 220809631 bytes
Unicasts: 1632131, Multicasts: 0, Broadcasts: 1
64-byte pkts: 985885, Over 64-byte pkts: 415575, Over 127-byte pkts: 88870
Over 255-byte pkts: 86119, Over 511-byte pkts: 17667, Over 1023-byte pkts: 38016
Over 1518-byte pkts(Jumbo): 0
Runts: 0, Jabbers: 0, CRC: 0, Overruns: 0
Errors: 0, Discards: 912313
Referring to the exhibit, what would be the cause of the discards?
