So I have two servers on the same network. One of them is reporting a large number of packets dropped. Specifically on the RX side. I have eth0/eth1 in vmbr0. I am seeing the drops on both eth0 directly and vmbr0. I have tried to dig into it and this is what I found, but I'm not sure how to fix it.

Thoughts?
