Abstract
Technologies are provided for identifying a source of errors within a computer network that uses cut-through forwarding of network packets. For example, inbound network packets can be received by network devices configured to perform cut-through forwarding. Once the network packets are received, they are processed using cut-through forwarding. If any packet errors are detected, error data associated with the detected errors are stored by the network devices. The error data is transmitted to a monitoring service that uses the error data to create a model of a flow of the errors through the network and to identify a source of the errors. In at least some embodiments, a topology of the network is used by the monitoring service to create the model of the packet error flow.
