The ethernet drivers (what kind do you have?) ... We presently have an MCI in the TS. The previous problem occured first on a (really old) 3Com card which was upgraded to the MCI to see if that fixed it. [I'm still not CERTAIN it's the same problem, but the symptoms are very close.] The ethernet driver could "hang", but it includes code to detect such things, and will reset the interface when it happens. No one who has this problem has had an inappropriate number of interface resets... Right. We have 1 interface reset in four weeks covering the time when the problem occurred. If the console responds during these periods, I'd like to get the output from show process/interface/tcp DURRING the hang. That might help a lot. The problems only last for a couple of minutes at most and it takes me at least 5 minutes to get from my office to the console even if I do get a timely report.
