Can't you just incorporate Marko's work at http://www.tel.fer.hr/zec/BSD/vimage/index.html? The design looks pretty clean too. And, XORP which probably is multiple tables aware, would make FreeBSD a really kick-ass routing platform.

I have alterred ipfw 'table' so that you can do ipfw table 2 add 1.2.3.4/24 2.3.4.5 and you can then use it to do: ipfw add 300 fwd tablearg from myrouter to table(2) out recv fxp2 >Regards, > > >Milan >_______________________________________________ >freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list >http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net >To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > > _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
