According to this: http://www.29west.com/docs/THPM/udp-buffer-sizing.html
the kern.ipc.maxsockbuf is the right oid. The problem only occurs after few days
of dhcpd process running then it begins do drop UDP randomly forcing us to
restart dhcpd process. Then everything goes well for few days again. Now
I really don't know where to look for help.

Regards,
Miroslav
