And here are my params:

-n "$F: "; cat $F ; done

/sys/module/lnet/parameters/peer_buffer_credits: 0

/sys/module/lnet/parameters/routes: 
/sys/module/lnet/parameters/small_router_buffers: 8192
/sys/module/lnet/parameters/tiny_router_buffers: 1024

I have not used ip2nets but configure routing but put explict routing 
statements into the modprobe.d/ files. Is that OK?
