4.2(8)

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

After the timeout period is exceeded, the drop adjacencies are removed from the FIB.

This command does not require a license.


Note
The Adjmgr generates a syslog for the configured packet count that will not be accurate to the glean packets dropped hit in FIB. The drop statistics collected from the FIB in S/w (Adjmgr) occurs every two minutes. The Adjmgr generates a syslog only after it receives the stats from the FIB every two minutes only for the adjacencies where the drop count exceeds the configured packet count.

Examples

This example shows how to generate a syslog if the number of packets that get dropped for a specific flow exceed the configured packet count: 

switch# configure terminal
