The following reply was made to PR kern/86871; it has been noted by GNATS. From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Vladim=EDr_Kotal?= <vlada@devnull.cz> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Vladim=EDr_Kotal?= <vlada@devnull.cz> Cc: Subject: Re: kern/86871: allocation logic for PCBs in TIME_WAIT state causes packet drops on stateful FWs Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2005 19:27:22 +0200 more possible solutions: - bind allocation of TIME_WAIT sockets to sequential/random allocation switch (when doing the transition to sequential port allocation, also make possible allocation of sockets in TIME_WAIT state) - do not (re)allocate sockets in TIME_WAIT state by default. if number of free ports reaches certain watermark, turn on allocation of sockets in TIME_WAIT state.
