I'm looking for some technical docs about FreeBSD's network stac virt. I saw a
paper from the wiki and little else. The paper seems to focus mostly on the
paralielization of the network stack more than the framework for a virtualized
network.
I want to compare it against OpenSolaris' crossbow, which has a way to virtualize almost
anything: virtual nics, virtual switches and virtual wires, so you can build a "wan
in a box". Is there anything like that for FreeBSD? any pointers to good docs would
be apreciated

firstly you should probably post to [email protected] (CC'd)
there have been various papers presented since 2003 on the topic
but they are probably all out of date.
the mechanism currently used is descripbed a bit in the 'how to
virtualize a module' document.
click on the 'download' link here:

It describes how things are virtualized. once you have read that
come back to this list with questions.
