When you see the "neighbour table overflow" message it simply means that
NFS cannot communicate with the server.  It could mean anything from a
bad cable, invalid IP setup, bad driver, incorrect driver setup, etc.
It really means that you are not successfully transporting IP packets.

Hello Everyone,
I have been having problems with my custom board. The NFS mount does
not
work. The NFS request does not actually go the server. I dont see any
packets coming to the server from this board. I did have some ring
dump
problems. There were some errors in Port A setting which I fixed and
that is
gone now. By I still see 'neighbour table overflow' messages. What can
be
the problem?

Navin,
I can't say that I remember for sure - but I seem to recall
this as being a problem in the Linux NFS implementation.
Check through the linux-kernel archives for messages regarding
the neighbour table overflow.  There may be a suggestion
on how to solve this.  I know I remember something about this...
