Situation Description

TCPIP input discard percentage.

 

Suggested Actions

This is based on the total number of IP input segments that were undeliverable and discarded, divided by the total IP segments received since the TCPIP stack was initialized. Segments can be discarded due to hardware errors, addressing errors, unknown protocols, and other errors. Excessive discards waste network resources. A trace might be needed to isolate the source of the discards. See the IBM IP Diagnosis Guide.
