Also IIRC you can tune the hash cache / tree algorithm - ie if your
traffic is mostly a few addresses then the default prefix search is
fine (with the caching) but for more sparse traffic as you'd see at an
edge, disabling the cache and using the other algo proved a lot
faster. There's a paper on t

FreeBSD's network stack chokes up in DDoS attacks due to interrupt
flooding. We used to use FreeBSD for firewalling and basic routing, but

Lots of people roll FreeBSD with Quagga/pf/ipfw for dual stack. See
the freebsd-isp list.

pfSense has ipv6, since it's essentially just a freebsd kernel with a
layer on top. However, ipv6 support in the GUI is fairly minimal to
non-existant, and I wouldn't recommend it if you really want to use
ipv6.
Mind you, I'm

Mikrotik RouterOS. It is based on Linux and a bit more feature-rich
than some of the linux router distros I've tried such as IPCop.

Anyone have some insight on a good dual stack Linux (or BSD) router distro?
Currently using IPCop but it lacks ipv6 support. I've used SmoothWall Express
but not in some time and not sure how well it works with IPv6. Not looking for
something huge, just something for the equivalent of a small
