What is cvsVSLTxChksumErrPkts?

This counts the number of packets transmitted over the VSL that had checksum errors. An admin cares because checksum errors specifically suggest physical-layer corruption on the VSL links, such as bad fiber or a bad transceiver, rather than a logical or software fault. For example, a steadily increasing count here would direct an admin to inspect the physical VSL cabling or transceivers rather than the virtual switch configuration.

Examples
