Hello everyone, Here are the final results of my tests: 1. I reinstalled the router with vanilla 9.2-RC4 and performed the same tests - the results were exactly the same. The problem persisted. 2. Then I applied the patch provided by Oleg and recompiled kernel. This indeed did *fix* the problem an

Thanks for the investigation, I guess what I'm wondering the most right now is if the patch from Oleg is a good change in general, so any others that can test and give me results would be appreciated. Thanks, Jack On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 11:14 AM, Rumen Telbizov wrote: > Hi Jack, > > Thanks fo

Rumen, I'd like to know if you can check the spanning tree setting as Daniel mentioned and if that solves it, I do know that that can cause considerable delay in link transitions. Also, can you see if you see different behavior by going to the latest 9.2 bits? Oleg thanks for the patch, I will ch
