Hello ,

I’m trying to troubleshoot an issue where some events are being dropped on our forwarders. I’d like to understand more about how to identify these dropped events and what the different drop reason codes mean.

Specifically, I’m looking for guidance on the following:

  1. How to verify on the forwarder side that events are being dropped.

  2. What the drop reason codes represent and how to interpret them ( meaning of each drop reason code )

  3. Common causes or troubleshooting steps for each drop reason.

Thanks for help
