[Fedora-xen] are dropped packets a sign of network problem?

[progressdll]

in a xen environment , i see a lot op dropped packets via netstat -i

Is this a sign of network problems, or is it normal to see this kind of
numbers? i'm not sure how to interprete the data. is this normal, bad,
critical. What are your stats on this?

I guess i have a xen issue of some sort, but not sure what yet

# netstat -i
