Here's how things got resolved. Still don't really understand what was
going
on.



---Quote (Originally by erspearson)---

Can you clarify - sounds like you are saying that the 4000/s messages are
not all xAP messages, it that right ("managed to get through in
beetween") -
so what are the other messages?



Also, since you have multiple vlans, what is doing to routing of broadcast
messages between the vlans?

---End Quote---

Yes, they are all Xap messages, tagged as comming from the squeezbox, and
sometime, a thermometer maneges to slip though.

Anyway, i thinkl i've got it. When i use the plugin, if on the same machine
as squeezecenter, i start Michael's xap Hub AND xFx viewer, i get the
problem.

If i lauch the viewer on another machine, everything is all right ( about
80
msg/min).



So now, i look to the network from another machine.



As for routing, the switch is configured to route broadcasts, with a limit
of 50% of capacity ( which probably saved my network from collapsing :-) )



I now use the new 2.2.1 plugin with SqueezeNetwork 7.2, and i will recode
my
scripts to send xap messages....

Hi Edward

Is this a continous flood or is it triggered by some event?
