            Bug ID: 214482
           Summary: [ports][net/mpd5] mpd5 fails to reset interfaces after
                    L2TP fail.
           Product: Ports & Packages

I run a moderately sized mpd installation servicing DSL clients.  They arri=
ve,
of course, by L2TP.

A problem occurs when the L2TP tunnel is cutoff remotely.  Think fiber cut =
as
an example, but I also believe the far end L2TP speaker can go down without
cleaning up.

In this case, all the ngX interfaces stay "UP" and mpd5 will not terminate.=

Rebooting seems the only solution.  If I kill -9 the mpd process, it does d=
ie,
but the ngX interfaces remain as does all the other in-kernel netgraph.

When I see this happen, mpd5 is still transmitting l2tp packets to nowhere.=
  No
incoming l2tp packets... just ones leaving the machine.

1) There needs to be a way to tell mpd5 to clear out, returning all resourc=
es.

2) mpd5 should recognize the non-existance of the other end and act
accordingly.
