following reasons
MTU violation during
encapsulation can cause packets
to be dropped.
Uplink interface drops (link
congestion).
Network congestion in the

If there are no MTU violation related
drops, run the following command to
know if there are uplink interface TX
drops.
To do that, first determine the uplink
interface that this tunnel uses by
running the “show interface tunnel
type intercept” command and identify
the ‘Egress port’.

Look for TX drop counters on this
interface.
Run the following CLI command and
check if the ifindex in the tunnel used
is valid.

Also in this case, the tunnel rule hit
count increases as packets match the
tunnel rule.

Run the following CLI command to know if
there are drops due to GRE KEY
incompatibilities.
GRE Key incompatibility
If the GRE KEY in the encapsulated
