More detail about change the queue length, I don't think simply input the command will do:-( I looked at the docu on tuntap, it just mentioned that the first time to configure the tap interface: mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200 or mkdir /dev/net. Is the number "200" the queue length? What's the number "10" for?? If I did "mkdir /dev/net", then what is the queue length will be?? And after that, how can I change the queue length and another number?? BTW: I checked the packets captured by etherreal, I found the packets queued each time after the ping flood is around 200. > If that's not the problem, then you should examine your application for > any hidden queues there.
