Someone on this list had mentioned a network card for the Max TNT that made
it immune to the nachia worm ping issue.

Is that the 4 port (3 ethernet, 1 fast ether) card or the single port card
with the dongle thing  or something else?

It turns out this was a bogus solution. Since the load was lower
afterwards, my tech thought it had been fixed. We tried limiting the size
of the route cache as someone had recommended, as well as applying all of
the filters without relief. This morning I had them just disable the route
cache to see what happens. I will post the results. We did end up buying a
support contract from Lucent after they said they had a fix and would
tell us what it was after we paid them. They just supplied the filter. At
this point, they have exactly zero clue as to what to do next.
