[Click] network load-balancer troubleshooting

[Sunjeet Singh]

Great! That worked.

Now, I stumbled upon another problem- although I am forwarding all 
packets to this other MAC address, only some of them are reaching there 
(I am observing using tcpdump). I wonder why this might be. Initially, I 
was firing packets at full speed using tcpreplay so I thought that this 
software load balancer might be getting overwhelmed, but even after 
decreasing speed to 10 packets per second I observed the same behavior. 
Please advise on how to diagnose.

As you can see, I really don't know much about Click. I am using this 
load balancer as a part of a bigger project described at 
http://mailman.icsi.berkeley.edu/pipermail/bro/2010-December/004715.html 
and am really hoping to speed through this part. So far, I am very 
impressed with the support I have received here.

Thank you,
Sunjeet Singh
