>Description:
FreeBSD is configured as a firewall/traffic shaping bridge.

Fragmented packets are intermittantly dropped when using pf with if_bridge. If pf's scrub function is used then fragments appear to be silently dropped.

Testing with the Windows XP ping -l function to a machine on the other side of the bridge:

ping -l <1472 = works
ping -l 1473<->1497 = dropped packets
ping -l >1498 = works

Below is the loud output when ping x.x.1.4 -l 1473 is executed.

kernel: pf_normalize_ip: reass frag 17581 @ 0-1480
trafficshaper kernel: pf_normalize_ip: reass frag 17581 @ 1480-1481
trafficshaper kernel: pf_reassemble: 1481 < 1481?
trafficshaper kernel: pf_reassemble: complete: 0xc15ba700(1501)

scrub in all fragment reassemble
>Fix:
If scrub fragment reassemble is not used then packets are passed OK.
If fragment drop-ovl is used the packets are passed OK.
