Hi all, Hi Andreas,

> +#define FRAG_TIMEOUT 60000     /* purge frag list entrys after time in

Why did you choose a so large timeout? Is there a particular reason for
that?

I think that in 60 seconds an host could receive a very large amount of
"orphan" packets in case of a bad link causing memory problems.

Could 5000/10000 be a better value?

Regards,
