There are cases where the HSB and switch report FCS errors on the HSB <-> switch interfaces. This can be seen in the snmp_dot3_stat table: name fcs_errors ---------- ---------- 12.1 83233172 This can cause intermittent packet loss, leading to networking errors. This can be observed on the BIG-IP as pool monitor flapping, intermittent networking connectivity, etc.
There is impact on networking traffic.
