I can't find any information (bug Navigator, technical tips, CCO
documentation, etc.) which I understand about Underruns in the output of
the command
"show interface FastEthenet 0/X" for a Catalyst 3500XL.
I have the next output in some of my ports:
HQ-SW#show interface
FastEthernet0/47 is up, line protocol is up

I can't understand why I'm having Underruns and for this I assume are
the output buffer failures.
Does Underruns meant those frames that the switch port can't handle
because it hasn't buffers?
what are causing in this case overruns?, there isn't any excesive
utilization with this switch port, very low indeed, or any speed
mismatch, and you can see only 280 broadcasts.
