Dear all,
I was got a reminder by a friedn about our network situation; we are
maintaining a cluster of ~200 nodes, connected via Gigbit ethernet. The
network configuration of the cluster is usual, nothing special; but if I
do a ping -b <bcast address> I see the Rx error counter increasing.
During normal network activity like NFS, scp or other applications,
everything is fine, only with doing broadcast pings I can reproduce the
increasing Rx error.
Does someone of you saw such a problem before ?
Thnx for any idea,
Cheers
Alex
