Large Receive Offload (LRO) is enabled by default. This will
interfere with forwarding TCP traffic. If you plan to forward TCP
traffic (using the host with the Myri10GE NIC as a router or bridge),
you must disable LRO. To disable LRO, load the myri10ge driver
with myri10ge_lro set to 0:
LRO should be disabled by default if the driver does this. This is a
major and unacceptable bug.
Thanks for pointing this out Rick.
No problem - just to play whatif/devil's advocate for a bit though... is there
any way to tie that in with the setting of net.ipv4.ip_forward (and/or its IPv6
counterpart)?
