Hi,

I see following for my tun devices when I do ls -al tun*
Every thing looks great for the first 10 tun device.

                               Same here.

What should be the tun device after tun9, is it tuna?
If that is correct then why the number shown in the
mail is not correct?

I am having problem connecting to those device that is why I am
asking question.

Thanks,
Tushar
