My system is NetBSD-4.0_BETA2, AMD Athlon XP 2500+, 2 fxp NICs.
Network is:
Media server <----> NetBSD 4.0 <----> Media Client
I want to test Media-Client's PPPoE performance.
So I install rp-pppoe on it and run pppoe-server.
When PPPoE is connected, Media-Client watch TV from Media-Server.
With "netstat -w1 -b -Ifxp1", I know the baud-rate is about 2.5Mbps.
After about 15 seconds, the connection is terminated.
I test the same case with a Linux box:
(Pentium III 750Mhz, 2 RealTek8139; pppd-2.4.2, Fadera Core 4),
during the 4-hour-testing, the PPPoE connection is OK always.
So, I guess it seems pppd's problem. (NetBSD4 use pppd-2.4.4)
"top" says: CPU is almost 95% idle.
