That's not a very common occurrence and you can just copy the packet in that case. (It's even less common when you consider that the most likely scenario is for the route to change among interfaces of the same type, which means that the new interface could be asked to ``adopt'' the old interface's buffer, and depending on the sort of hardware involved, it may be able to do so without modification.) -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
