CIRC.004

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
CIRC.004 Op ovfl nt network ID
Long Syntax:
CIRC.004 Output overflow when transmitting on Network network ID
Description:
When the router went to send a packet, the network output queue was too full and the router had to discard the packet. The output overflow counter for that network was incremented, and the packet was returned to the protocol forwarder for attention.
Cause:
The source packet traffic in the input network is higher than the bandwidth available in the output network. Since the router itself is keeping up with the traffic, there is little it can do. The hosts generating the traffic are simply sending more data than the output network can accommodate.
Action:
Increase the speed of the network in question (particularly if it is a slow speed leased line), or take measures to restrict the amount of traffic generated on the input network.
