Ermal,
I'd prefer a raw BSD installation (Call it a comfort thing, if you will).
Has the pfSense project actually managed to patch OpenBGPD to remove its
dependency on OpenBSD specific bindings for TCP_MD5?
It might be worth it to just try to build their fork, if that's the case.
Thank you for responding!

If for you is an option pfSense has all the hard work done for you and
you can use it for such installations.

Hi folks,
I plan to make an edge router out of a freebsd system with
OpenBGPD + FreeBSD 10, or such.
I've been reading up, and noticed that the
net.inet.ip.fastforwarding flag provides rather nice performance
benefits.
My issue is, my upstream networks insist on using TCP MD5
authentication on their BGP sessions.
This is fine, except on FreeBSD -- I'm going to have to use the
setkey utility to set those since native PF_KEY support for
OpenBGPD does not seem available.
Now, since setkey is part of IPSec, and there are countless
warnings about using IPSec and fastforwarding together in the
manpage, am I correct in assuming that this will not work if I
have fastforwarding enabled?
Is there any way to make it work? Quagga, from what I've read,
seems to also be in the same boat (Usage of setkey required for
TCP MD5).
I tried searching the manpages, but couldn't locate anything
concrete on this.
Any assistance/replies are welcome.
Thank you!
