What about "routing zone" or "forwarding zone" which may be
abbreviated as "rtzone" or "fwdzone".

So, I'm playing with some multiple routing table support..
the first version is a minimal impact version with very limited
functionality.
It's done that way so I can put it in RELENG_6/7 without breaking ABIs
(I hope).
Later there will be a more flexible version for-current.
Here's the question..
I need a word to use to describe the network view one is currently on..
e.g. if you are usinghe second routing table, you could say I've set
xxx to 1
(0 based)..
current;y in my code I'm using 'universe' but I don't like that..
one could think of it as a routing plane..
each routing plane has he same interfaces on it but they are logically
treated differently becasue each plane has a different routing table.
so here's an axample of it in use now...
the names should change...
setuniverse 1 netstat -rn
[shows table 1]
setuniverse 2 route add 10.0.0.0/24 192.168.2.1
setuinverse 1 route add 10.0.0.0/24 192.168.3.1
setuniverse 2 route -n get 10.0.0.3
[shows 192.168.2.1]
setuniverse 1 route -n get 10.0.0.3
[shows 192.168.3.1]
setuniverse 2 start_apache
[appache starts, always using 192.168.2.1 to reach the 10.0.0 net.
also the syscall is setuniverse()
so, you see I really need a better name....
setrtab?
rtab? rtbl?
and the command should be called "????"
