I think that this is a large part of my problem. Strangely I tested this again this morning and the forward delay had changed for my entire network. My network is a little unusual in that I have 4 Linux bridges in series. Last night before going to bed I shut down one of the end points. I imagine that doing so caused a root renegotiation and thus allowed the forward delay to propagate. I am running 3.11 on some systems and 3.2.0 on one of them. The system I shut down last night was the one on which I didn't try running brctl before filing this bug report. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
