Well assuming you've got 100Mbps or 1000Mbps network cards, this isn't at all surprising. Tcpreplay isn't verifying that your device actually forward the packets; just that the packet can be sent out on the wire. Of course if you have a 10Mbps card and it's reporting doing about 10x that, then yes something is horribly wrong. :) > Is there anything that can be adjusted to correct this issue? Use tomahawk; it verifies that the packet it sends is received on the other end before sending the next packet. -- Aaron Turner http://synfin.net/ http://tcpreplay.synfin.net/ - Pcap editing & replay tools for Unix ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
