>Description:
If I add line
add pipe 20 ip from any to any xmit fxp1
then transit packets passed through this rule losts. Not fragmented
packets processed correctly.
Without this rule both "ping -s 1500" and "ping -s 1472" works fine.
tcpdump shows in pipe case first part of packet followed by
the second part, I think it cause problem with reassembling.
I have no ipfw rules with "frag" flag.
>How-To-Repeat:
Create ipfw pipe and try to "ping -s 1500" though it.
It fails on my tests on RELENG_5 and RELENG_5_3, other versions
I did not test.
>Fix:
Now as workaround I pass all packets before pipe through divert socket
without altering for reassemble.
