I noticed these error messages on my console. Can someone explain what
this means and why it is happening?

tu0 is a DEC 10/100 (DE500-AA?) running 100BaseTX Full Duplex connected to
a BayNetworks Centillion 100 switch.

tu0: transmit FIFO underflow: threshold raised to: 1024 bytes
tu0: transmit FIFO underflow: using store-forward:

Thanks!
