Those are not high. That is only 0.6%. Collisions rates of 20% are
tolerable under certain circumstances. What I would worry about is the
resets. You really shouldn't have any. Something on your network is
causing them. I have one pm2 that has been up on 3.7.2 for 155 days. It
has 20 analog pots lines and a 5BRI card and is used with lots of
dedicated 24/7 connections and it has zero resets and a collision ratio of
0.06% but it is on a switched hub.
I recommend getting a switched hub when you get to 5-10% collisions.
