This seems to be the case. I'm not sure why I was getting 'unable to allocate' errors on the console, but I'm not getting them anymore and as a test, I added about um... 1500 IP aliases just to see what would happen (nothing really). The mbuf clusters increased and I got no errors, so all is working correctly. I was a little worried when I saw the % used approaching 100 and jumped to conclusions about low mbufs and the allocation errors I got. LART me, and have a good one. | Matthew N.
