<![CDATA[interface errors]]>Any Ideas on troubleshooting this? Strangely I have multiple inbound, but zero outbound.
They increment continually.

Both of these are on an dual port intel 10gig card. ix0/ix1

Moving to 23.01-RELEASE has completely cleaned this up.

I didn’t see these issues when I ran ESXI so I think the NIC is functional. I have fab cooling on it so it’s not overheating. Perhaps I should order a replacement NIC, I only need 2.5G as my ISP is only 1.5. I will see if there are any dual port Intel 2.5G NIC for a fair price. Thanks for the assistance.

I agree I wouldn't expect to see any really, especially on an internal interface.
I assume you're not actually seeing any problems with the traffic using those NICs?

Check the output of: ifconfig -vvvm ix0 and see what other offloading options are enabled.

I re-booted in-between the two posts to disable hardware checksum offload.

Mine are infact all checksum errors.
I included the first screenshot to show the numbers are not insignificant. Or perhaps they are and they are "normal" and I can ignore these. I know that before I upgraded the NIC to support this new ISP service I had very few errors, often none when I checked.

There are a number of error types listed in the full mac_stats output there. Check to see where most are.

22.05
hw checksum Offloading, hardware TCP segmentation offloading, hw large recieve offloading, are disabled

I do not have a switch on the WAN interface, but I do use a SFP+ transceiver to connect to my ISP device @ 10gig

I use a twinax cable from my LAN interface to my Switch @ 10gig

edit I mistakenly said my LAN port post transciever was @2.5g when it is actually at 10G
