Hello, I would appreciate anyone's comments on how IP Multipathing has
worked out for you on Solaris 10. I work with a VoIP product running
Solaris 8 and 9. Last year we gave IPMP a try and didn't have good
success due to links being taken out of service because pings to the
router failed. (We found that some routers when under a load quit
responding to pings). I looked through this board and found that there
are several posts of encountering the same type of issue.
We haven't stressed IPMP extensively, but works ok for us on Solaris 10.
Re: routers dropping ICMP echo traffic... this is a common tactic due to
DoS attacks of a few years ago that tended to use ping in DDoS or
amplification attacks, so ICMP Echo traffic was generally either rate
limited or had a reasonable effort-type of QoS prioritization applied.
If this is a particular issue, see if your router's vendor has some sort
of knob to assure ICMP Echo prioritization / delivery.
