It seems that it might be better to add in the laddr if it contains additional variable information, but I don't see how not doing so would be a degenerate case when having a lot of IP aliases. The faddr, lport, and fport are still just as variable as in the non-lots-of-aliases case, so the hash distribution should be the same. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
