After I upgraded my IOS this morning I've seen 13,844 input errors on the port; when looking at the switch the router is connected to I see that a very similar number of multi-cast packets (13,423).

 

Has anyone else seen this?  Is this perhaps what the patch does (register exploit packets as input errors)?
