I am running dhrelay. So it is getting hit with quite a few lease requests
being forwarded to our DHCP servers. About once a week when our leases get
renewed I get the following error. "Eth1 : Too much work during interrupt.
Csr5=0xF0630040." (This is the interface where our DHCP server resides) I
am assuming that this is because the nic is being flooded on port 67 between
its' ports and it is dropping packets as a result. So far I have updated to
the most recent tulip driver (v0.93), and I have applied the following fix:
"echo "500 1000 2000" > /proc/sys/vm/freepages"
(Check link for details)

This seemed to work but the problem has returned. Does anyone have any
suggestions? Is there a way that I can increase the maximum work during the
interrupt? Is there a driver for this card that works properly? Can someone
point me to a link that will be helpful?
Thanks in advance.
Troy
