What kind of router and IOS version is this?  I don't see many routers
listing flushes as a counter.  Something doesn't look right though.  All the
traffic hitting this interface is broadcast.  30 million in 26 hours is
pretty bad.  What's at the other end of this /30 segment?  Any protocols
other than IP on it?
