    Interface errors are increasing:

    Errors: 329482, Drops: 0, Framing errors: 325150, Runts: 4332, Giants: 0, Policed discards: 0, Resource errors: 0

    We tried to recreate the vc-port like this:

    request virtual-chassis vc-port delete pic-slot 1 port 3 member 1
    wait 5 minutes
    request virtual-chassis vc-port set pic-slot 1 port 3 member 1



    But errors still increasing after recreation:

    Like to know why this error came on log and error increasing. Is it due to SFP or cable issue. Can any one share the KB.
