Hi Alan, Not really: * The n_pkts_dropped counter is intended to be incremented every time a packet is dropped, regardless of the drop cause (either tail drop or RED), so it is cumulative of all drop causes. * The n_pkts_red_dropped counter is only incremented when the drop cause is RED, so it represents a slice of n_pkts_dropped. Therefore, the number of packets dropped due to tail drop is (n_pkts_dropped - n_pkts_red_dropped). So NAK. Thanks, Cristian
