Oh whoops, sorry didn't see that. So the plot thickens. Why don't these errors show up in the netstat output I forwarded originally? Ierrs was 0 but the dmesg output clearly shows missed packets. Any thoughts on what is going on? Looking at the code, missed_rx should certainly get counted in the ierrors field as you said.
Is the Ierrs in the netstat output some other counter? If so, how do I get the if_ierrors variable from the command line?
