“downward spike received from pfe for ibytes_reply”

May 28, 2016 by James Palmer

This article describes the issue of the “downward spike recived from pfe for ibytes_reply” log message being continuously generated.

The Junos device continuously logs the following messages:

May 11 06:12:50 mx-router pfed: %USER-3: downward spike recived from pfe for ibytes_reply:10625039 ibytes_record:10694154 for ifl:82 loc_id:100030004000
May 11 07:17:49 mx-router pfed: %USER-3: downward spike recived from pfe for ibytes_reply:14729085 ibytes_record:14799865 for ifl:82 loc_id:100030004000
May 11 11:42:50 mx-router pfed: %USER-3: downward spike recived from pfe for ibytes_reply:31697100 ibytes_record:31767260 for ifl:82 loc_id:100030004000
May 11 11:47:50 mx-router pfed: %USER-3: downward spike recived from pfe for ibytes_reply:32027662 ibytes_record:32110398 for ifl:82 loc_id:100030004000

You can use a regular expression to filter out these log messages. However, to avoid flooding of /var/log/messages, the router logs only the first 2000 of these messages and then stops until the next reboot (or pfed restart):

>show log messages | match ifl:82 | last 10
May 12 19:32:35 mx-router pfed: %USER-3: downward spike recived from pfe for ibytes_reply:3552107661 ibytes_record:3552179185 for ifl:82 loc_id:100030004000
