Hello.
We are running an (IRC) server that under high-rate traffic (ie. DDoS
attack) stops to respond to the network. The network remains locked up
even after the original attack stops. However running tcpdump (which
switches the interface into promisc mode) unlocks networking and things
work again.
At the moment, we are running 6.2-RC1 cvsupped at Dec 10, with if_fxp.c
from Nov 11 (previously, we had 6.1 for a while, having the same issues)
if_fxp.c,v 1.240.2.10.2.1 2006/11/20 16:21:12
The same machine used to run FreeBSD 4.11 without any problems.
Any help/pointers/suggestions would be appreciated.
