This is experienced with l3.large, t2.micro with Ubuntu 14. I believe
we don't have any special settings over system defaults.
We send a large datagram from remote host, e.g. with such trivial app in python:
import socket
UDP_IP = "123.123.123.123" # remote host IP
UDP_PORT = 33333
MESSAGE = """

print "UDP target IP:", UDP_IP
print "UDP target port:", UDP_PORT
print "message:", MESSAGE
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
sock.sendto(MESSAGE, (UDP_IP, UDP_PORT))
Then we listen on that port with such trivial python app:
import socket
UDP_IP = "172.31.4.102" # local ip
UDP_PORT = 33333
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
sock.bind((UDP_IP, UDP_PORT))
while True:
data, addr = sock.recvfrom(0x10000)
print "received message:", data
Meanwhile, we monitor the traffic with e.g. ngrep:
ngrep -t -e -d any -W byline -O large_udp.pcap port 33333 or
'(ip[6:2]' '&' '0x1fff)' '!=' '0'
(the part after "or" catches segments of segmented packets)
About the host:
# uname -a
Linux hostname 3.16.0-30-generic #40~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 15
17:43:14 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Also linux-image-3.13.0-36-generic and linux-image-3.13.0-45-generic
behave in same way.
What we see:
- ngrep shows the packets with correct contents. All segments are delivered.
- application doesn't get any data at all
Rarely dmesg shows such messages:
[ 102.161679] UDP: bad checksum. From 123.123.123.124:56439 to
172.31.4.102:33333 ulen 2008
but it is logged really rarely, so this is surely not what happens on
every packet transmission.
This test works fine on e.g. cheapest DigitalOcean VPS.
I am concerned with this issue because rtpengine software has UDP
interface. So on Amazon hosts this interface works only within
localhost, and I cannot distribute software to different nodes.
Any thoughts? What's wrong, how to fix?
