Folks,

We've been generally happy with neorouter and have over 300 clients networked; however,
we have encountered what appears to be a bug in the client. Running ubuntu 18.04 / running server/client version 2.6.2.5020-pro-ubuntu-amd64.deb

A central server (not our neo server) collects data from our sites and runs a job that starts 10 separate collection processes. Each process collects data from an assigned subset of all sites, e.g. 300 sites, 10 jobs, each job polls 30 sites.

We often notice the lost of the nrtap interface on our central server. We see the below in kern.log. As a work around we have a monitoring process which restarts the client, but would like a real fix. Happy to supply additional info.

Just wanted to share this. Did some debug with tech support and have
a solution:
---------------------
Upgraded to latest client/server versions (2.6.2.5020) and implemented fix from NeoRouter support by creating a Feature.ini file in /usr/local/ZebraNetworks/NeoRouter with the following contents on new-office and aws1.

This stops a feature in the client which attempts to optimize performance by choosing a direct connection to another Neo client on the same local network, instead of using the relay from the Neo Server.

[Default]
UdpOnly=0
P2P=0

No problems since then on any data collection runs.

We worked with tech support and turned on debug in the client.

They were able to track the problem down to a fault occurring in the the peer-to-peer logic. They don't have a fix in the code yet.

We do not use that feature overall. But it seems clients on the same local network will try to use peer-to-peer. The Feature.ini disables that entirely.
