Sometimes when I try to ping a neighbor machine (plugged directly in
with no switch involved), I get:
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
If I reset the interface 'ifconfig em1 down; ifconfig em1 up' the
problem goes away.
The pings are:
FreeBSD 8.3 em1 --> FreeBSD 9.0 em2
and I am seeing the issue on the FreeBSD 8.3 machine. The box has 6GB
of free ram and is a quagga router.
What do I need to tune?
Thanks!
Rudy
