Thanks all for your replies. Well it is 1 Gig and full duplex on both the
side and it is not hardcoded. Flow control is off on both the sides for
input and output traffic.

So these 2 routers are in MPLs domain with one being PE and the other being
P router and i see output drops on the PE router towards P router. PE router
has mls qos enabled and right now the interface in the MPLS domain shows all
the traffic in cos 0 and hence in Queue 1 and there is where i see the
drops.

Now i can increase the queue limit but that will add delay to the packets
sitting in the queue and can lead to other issues. Pls suggest.

thanks
