Symptoms

TMM crashes when PPTP finds a redirected flow when checking for an existing tunnel.

Impact

Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.

Conditions

PPTP-ALG and CGNAT on a chassis system when a blade has been added with a stale PPTP tunnel.

Workaround

None

Fix Information

The system now drops the new flow/tunnel and allow it to clean up, so TMM no longer crashes when PPTP finds a redirected flow when checking for an existing tunnel.
