[ECOS] Problems with sockets after 1132 requests

[sandeep]

Hi Michael,
Your mail vaguely reminds of something similar we had observed here (perhaps
more than an year back) on a different platform and in slightly different
context. It could be possible mbuff leakage problem (perhaps mbuffs not getting
freed). Here is what you can try (I am not a networks expert)

- enabling "Network MBUF diagnostics"
- play around with the "Memory designated for networking buffers" to see if
numbers change from 1132 / 15
- increasing/decreasing the value of "Max number of open sockets" and see if
that bears any relations to the figures you observe

peace
