What's "non-igmp traffic"? Got a packet dump of one of these FW-Killer
packets?

I had a Gauntlet 2.1FW that used to hang for no reason for a while under
suspicious circumstances, but I took the easy option of upgrading it...I'd
be interested to know what the problem is...

I have with a F/W that stalls every day at approximately the same time.
Looking at the logs, two items stand out. One, the inside interface gets hit
with ICMP traffic. Two, the same interface gets hit with a "non-igmp"
traffic. The ICMP traffice occurs intermittently throughout the day, but the
"non-igmp" traffic appears just before the F/W hangs. Is the "non-igmp"
traffic enough to be causing the F/W to hang?
