What is etherStatsDropEvents?

Counts the number of times the device dropped packets due to a lack of internal resources on this port, not the number of packets dropped -- per the description, it's the count of detected drop conditions. A nonzero and climbing value signals the device itself is becoming a bottleneck, separate from any wire-side errors.
