I may be wrong, but I believe that this is due to IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH being enabled in your kernel, and has nothing to do with the kernel's vintage. Dave, please note that the window when there's no route is very short -- it lasts just a few microseconds --, so you'll typically lose just between 0 and 1 packets on a route change. I agree that it should be fixed, and using Linux' ability to do multipath is a good workaround, as long as it doesn't break babeld on non-multipath kernels. -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
