If the packet was dropped somewhere in the network then you would see the retransmission on the client VM, since it is the one running the TCP stack. I would run tcpdump at each interface in the path and see what exactly is happening to the packets in between each segment. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
