Not all wireless sessions appear in Status - WISH Sessions
« on: December 17, 2008, 01:29:55 PM »

Wireless Clients
LAPTOP Intel 4965ABGN iwlagn...001DE02AA0FD...192.168.177.215...802.11n (2.4GHz)
WBRIDGE Zyxel P-330W...0013492A5516...0.0.0.0...802.11g

LAN Clients
XP1 Wired to WBRIDGE...00:40:ca:48:c7:04...192.168.177.102...DIR-655 DHCP Client
XP2 Wired to DIR-655...00:02:55:7a:98:b9...192.168.177.105...DIR-655 DHCP Client
LAPTOP Intel 4965ABGN iwlagn...00:1D:E0:2A:A0:FD...192.168.177.215...DIR-655 DHCP Client

Both XP1 and XP2 boxes are XP SP3.
WBRIDGE is a ZyXEL P-330W configured in its wireless bridge mode.
LAPTOP is running Ubuntu Linux.

From LAPTOP to XP1, I connect to a shared folder to stream video.  When I try to move the player slider to a different part of the video file, the network flow stops and the app starves.  Even before I move the slider, the flow is not listed in WISH_Sessions.

From LAPTOP to XP2, I connect to a shared folder to stream video in an identical method.  When I try to move the player slider to a different part of the video file, the network flow starts as expected and the app does not starve.  The flow is listed in WISH_Sessions.

Flows from XP1 to the Internet do appear in the WISH_Sessions.  I can make rules for them and manipulate their priority.  However, creating rules for the flows that aren't showing do not help -- the flow is still missing from the list.

I have confirmed with NETSTAT that a TCP IPV4 session exists between LAPTOP and XP1 even as the flow is missing from the list. 

The only difference that I can see is that XP1 is behind a bridge.  To reach XP1, the MAC address of the wireless bridge has to be used. To reach XP2, the wired MAC and the DHCP-reserved MAC will match.
