The number of dropped packets As we could not reproduce the issue we decided to start esxtop in batchmode and use esxplot and perfmon to get to the bottom of it. Explore its features, commands, and how to use it to troubleshoot performance. Looking at esxtop, there are 0 dropped packets being reported for any VM's on the host, and the guest reports 0 dropped packets.
