Thank you very much for pointing to the specific modules.

As described in the Jun 2003 SysAdmin article, "The log is monitored for specific port sequences that encode information used to modify firewall rules, which are changed to open or close ports for a specific IP address."

It was my understanding that BGP would take care of this. Maybe I didn't accurately describe my parameters. When I said "fastest link" I meant the one with the most available bandwidth at a given point in time. Linux magazine recently had a pretty good article about dynamic routing protocols.In the Mar 2004 issue it clearly describes load balancing capabilities of BGP-4. If my understanding of BGP is correct, what is it that you are saying is not currently implemented? Thank you for your detailed response. --Cal Webster ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
