Just to clarify, I'm not trying to discourage but more to see if what
you want to do will actually solve your problem and not just be a lot
of work for little or no gain.

What are the issues you have with your ISP? Are you sure they are
related to routing? I was the senior network engineer for a
decent sized ISP for years and in my experience last mile problems
are almost always relate to the telco and not [dynamic] routing.
Why do you feel you need dynamic routing? Do you have more than 1
provider?

Ok, I have made the changes to the Cisco and I can now long
in. So what do I need to do to A.) Allow pfsense to play
nicely with the Cisco. B.) Since I don't know what routing
protocol that the edge router is using, what do I need to do
to setup the Cisco to dynamically route traffic?

Ok as for the password recovery there is a "easy" an non config
deleting
way.
On the cisco page there is a section for password recovery it
outlines
all the staps needed to recover the password without deleting the
configuration !
You will need console access to the router though I have used it
from
800 series till 10000 series routers so I know it works :)
I will post the link later on I have to grab my laptop for it ;)

Here is the problem in a nutshell... The Cisco was bought
and they had someone configure the Cisco. There was a
falling out, and the guy bailed without giving the enable
password on the Cisco.
Although I could crack the password, all of the methods that
I know usually blow away the configuration. And for whatever
reason, they (the ISP) can get the configuration from the
T-1 provider (probably because they have been lax in paying
the bill).
I agree that it would probably be better to use the cisco to
handle the routing, but unless someone can tell me how to
crack the enable password, that is not an option.

I guess you need Zebra then or gated dont know the one you are
talking
about.
But what kind of routing issues are you getting from the link
from the
ISP as there might be a better solution resolved within the
cisco as the
Linux routing packages are notoriously instable and unreliable.
I work allot with checkpoint firewalls at work and they have
the zebra
and gated solutions (depending on the version) and there are major
issues with the dynamic routing on those.

My issue is that my pfsense box is connected to a Cisco
router which is acting as a bridge to connect to ISP. I am
constantly running into problems with the way the ISP
routes.
If I were to install quagga on to the pfsense box, would the
box actually handle the routing through RIP and dymanically
change the routing tables thus bypassing the problems on the
ISP side or is that wasted effort on my part?

There no GUIS for them and the packages never worked
