Inbound spikes in graph

Inbound spikes in graph

Hello,

I'm monitoring a gig ethernet interface on Cisco 3925 router. On our 1 minute average traffic graph there are spikes going up to 100 megabits.  I'm not sure why these are being reported because I don't believe the carrier is pushing that much traffic towards us. The interface config is below:

p0_wan_r1#sh run int gig0/1
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 157 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
 bandwidth 20000
 no ip address
 duplex full
 speed 100
 service-policy output SHAPING-PM
end

p0_wan_r1#sh run int gig0/1.3412
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 208 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.3412
 bandwidth 20000
 encapsulation dot1Q 3412
 ip address 192.168.1.41 255.255.255.252
 ip pim sparse-mode
 ip flow ingress
 ip flow egress
end

Is this a normal behavior, has anyone see this before?
