Hi There,
We haev aggrgate interface called ae2, and we have some problems with the traffic related to this interface
so we run the commnand show interface ae2
and show interface ethernet1/3 (which is one of the interfaces inside ae2)
(the ouput is down)
can someone please tell me the difference between: "receive errors" and "receive incoming errors"?
you can see that under the ae2 interface its shows as "receive errors"
and under the physical interface its shows as "receive incoming errors"
i think that "receive incoming errors" is something the was first shows in 7.0.1
Thanks!

Hi,
Please check this discussion. A lot of useful info:

Thx,

Thanks Myky,
useful info indeed,
but actually i know how to look for the source of the problem and the cause
doing it with "counter global" with filters and "delta yes" and so on...
but in all this info and links i still didnt found as answer for what is the difference between "receive errors" and "receive incoming"
Thanks,
Reshef

Hello Reshef,
I realised we had similar case. Output from our interface ( on the time when we had bad SFP):

We had a bad SFP on that interface. As soon as we replaced it we stopped receiving any incoming errors. I don't know really if this is relevant to you case but just some more info on this.
Hardware "receive errors" described here:

Hey Myky,
Thanks again.
so first, interesting, i will check the issue with the sfp with that customer.
who knows 🙂
but yet, i didnt found an answer,
because the post you gave me, from 2013, and back than there was no "receive incoming errors"
only "receive errors" .
i think it shows first in 7.0.
so there is no reference in that post to "receive incoming errors"
not in the post and not in the comments below.
and for some reason the customer insist of knowing what's the difference.
Thanks,
Reshef

Cannot answer what exactly does it mean but checking PA that running 6.1.7 PAN-OS still can see this incoming errors :
