Hi,

I am guessing I am just overwhelming the box no ? Each of my 
generator boxes are blasting about 600Kpps in opposite directions 
through the box 10 byte UDP packets.  Even when doing just the one 
stream in NetBSD, the box (r2) acting as the router is totally 
unresponsive from the serial console and OOB NIC.
