Log:
  The flow-table associates TCP/UDP flows and IP destinations with
  specific routes. When the routing table changes, for example,
  when a new route with a more specific prefix is inserted into the
  routing table, the flow-table is not updated to reflect that change.
  As such existing connections cannot take advantage of the new path.
  In some cases the path is broken. This patch will update the affected
  flow-table entries when a more specific route is added. The route
  entry is properly marked when a route is deleted from the table.
  In this case, when the flow-table performs a search, the stale
  entry is updated automatically. Therefore this patch is not
  necessary for route deletion.
Hi,

Will this fix the issue that I see visualising its self as packet loss over a VPN tunnel?

The tunnel is an openvpn (tun mode) tunnel providing a route to 192.168.201.0/24 however when I ping an address in this network with flowtable enabled I see 2-3 out of every 5-6 packets end up being sent out of bge0 (IP 172.17.XX.XX/23 GW 172.17.XX.1) to the default gateway (which responds with destination host unreachable) rather than down tun0.

Thanks

Tom
