I am working on Linux multipath networking and I will like to fix bugs related to equal cost multipath caching support. So can u send me following information about the oops :- kernel version config file routing table setup ( any multipath setup information. e.g. multipath algorithm options) iptable configuration forwarding information what was the oops message & what triggered that? This will help me understand the problem. Thanks & Regards, Pravin.
