I don't know if it's the most secure, but unless you're willing to use a Nokia box, you don't have many options when it comes to OSPF. However, support for gateD is virtually non-existent. If you feel confident, you might want to try GNU Zebra (http://www.zebra.org/). It's much more current, and if you email the developers they actually respond!
Good luck!

Does anyone have any suggestions or tips on setting up GateD on Solaris 2.6 for running OSPF, *and* making it work with FW1? I have a basic implementation with one OSPF area in the gated.conf file and a rule allowing authorized routers to send their routing updates to the Solaris machine (firewall). This seems to work but I want to make sure that this is the best and most secure solution.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Dan
