Dear friends, We are observing strange behavior with RHEL 6.2: Our the server lease time is 90 seconds. I can see that client sends SEQUENCE every 60 sec. And this is for some hours ( ~8 ). At some point client sends SEQUENCE after 127 seconds and gets, as expected, EXPIRED. I this point I have to blame myself. Client comes with EXCHANGE_ID using the same clientid. We did not garbage collected clientid internally as this happens after 2*LEASE_TIME and return EXPIRE. This ping-pong never ends. This is probably mostly a bug on my side. Nevertheless we never observed late SEQUENCE with kernel > 2.6.39. A short packet dump attached. I can open bug at RHEL if required. Regards, Tigran.
