Thanks Eddie, for the info. Another Q on Xory: while Xorp running under FreeBSD, is it a complete replacement of the original FreeBSD routing code for static, multicast routing for instance...? If the case, how the packet flow looks like, where could I start tracing... could you point some pointers...
Many thanks!
