I can see the packets going on the alternate path when the first link fails, 
but at the end of the test, the result is a
failure, so I am not sure!
I tried this with both '-ap' and "-lap -rap" options. I am assuming they are 
equivalent.

------------------------------
[root]# qperf <server-ipaddr> -ap 2 -t 30 rc_bw
rc_bw:
warning: -ap set but not used in test rc_bw
failed to receive results: timed out



-------------------------
[root]# qperf <server-ipaddr> -lap 2 -rap 2 -t 30 rc_bw
rc_bw:
warning: -lap set but not used in test rc_bw
warning: -rap set but not used in test rc_bw
failed to receive results: timed out

thanks,
Suri
