The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Cisco show interfaces at "input errors" counters is high (and some interface resets)

Asked by sttailsja in Network Routers

Tags: errors, cisco, interface, input

Hi all, does anyone knows what should cause the "input errors" increasing?

We are having periodic random line protocol is down in our serial interface. This interface is Multilink PPP. Does this counters below indicated config problem? (i.e: keepalive 3 set), or hardware problem (bad interface WIC) or line telco problem (input errors & CRC & interface resets)?

Please keep eyes on the show interface result below. I think this should be interesting to troubleshoot. It seems easy but not that easy since we're unable to decide yet what's the root of the problem so far. Hardware? Config? or Line telco?

Any thought? Thanks :)
