From: Jamal Hadi <hadi@shell.cyberus.ca> Date: Mon, 19 May 2003 22:13:33 -0400 (EDT) I dont think the hashes are similar - its the effect into the slow path. I was told by someone who tested this on a priicey CISCO that they simply die unless capable of a feature called CEF. I found a description of this thing on Cisco's web site. Amusingly it seems to contradict itself, it says that the CEF FIB is fully populated and has a 1-to-1 correspondance to the routing table yet it says that the first access to some destination is what creates CEF entries. Go figure! :-) - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
