Hi Mike, Indeed we do have discrepancy in what we are seeing because I'm not able to see what you see. This is the case of an unreachable host (in my traces mount.nfs-3400 [001] .... 1662.882880: rpc_connect_status: task:103@2 status=-113 you provided a short tracepoint file (where the return value was -115 and that ENOTCONN reflecting that a SYN was sent). But here's my run. Trying to capture the timing of both mounts. I start the "unreachable" mount first and then the mount that should succeed which does without much wait. The unreachable case times out very fast and allows for other mounts to proceed without issues. [aglo@localhost ~]$ date Wed Jun 9 09:33:48 EDT 2021 [aglo@localhost ~]$ time sudo mount -o vers=4.2,sec=sys 2.2.2.2:/fake_path /scratch mount.nfs: No route to host real 2m12.464s user 0m0.014s sys 0m0.108s [aglo@localhost ~]$ date Wed Jun 9 09:36:18 EDT 2021 [aglo@localhost ~]$ date Wed Jun 9 09:33:51 EDT 2021 [aglo@localhost ~]$ time sudo mount -o vers=4.2 192.168.1.110:/ /mnt real 0m0.126s user 0m0.017s sys 0m0.067s [aglo@localhost ~]$ date Wed Jun 9 09:33:56 EDT 2021 There are no SYNs to 2.2.2.2 in my traces. So something different about network infrastructures where in your case for some reason you are sending something to 2.2.2.2 and the only reason I can think of is that you have something in the ARP cache and I don't. And Alex yes I do have an ARP entry for my default gateway but no there is no SYN sent to the server from a different subnet.
