What does the flow_sfpwq_taildrop counter mean?

[KiCheon.Lee]

Hello

I need your help.

I look out flow_sfpwq_taildrop counters increase high when I monitor PA.

So I wonder what this counter mean.

And I also wonder whether this counter influence real traffic or not.

Thanks.

Hello Cheon,

This is a packet counter, while DP processing the first packet in slow-path.  This meaning, "session first packet wait queue". This counter is generally observed in multi DP platform i.e PAN 5000 series.
