So adding a default route to the tunnel interface will not hurt anything. > Can you reproduce it, or at least describe what you did to get the panic? started racoon on the client. it was a wierd testing cycle, so I guess i can't reproduce it. But my normal setup gives me about 20-50 Call Traces during the boot sequence. Once someone has found those issues and fixed them, I will run bigger tests again. Right now with still so many xfrm related problems testing is a bit pointless.
