OpenBGPD handling
I am curious to know how well OpenBGPD handles the BGP update dynamics as described in this Cisco RFP. http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac207/crc_new/university/RFP/rfp07026.ht ml This is assuming running OpenBGPD with full tables over gig ethernet connections and on a modern hardware (multi gigahertz CPU and multi gigabytes of RAM + intel gigE nics). Are there any general concerns or issues with BGP updates causing performance issues on the system? Compatibility problems with any hardware vendors' BGP implementations? Etc >From my reading it seems that all normal/standard BGP functionality is present if not enhanced (bgp session key management, etc) in OpenBGPD and that performance is comparable to expensive Cisco grade router hardware and the user testimonials look pretty good too. http://www.openbgpd.org/users.html. Are there any features or functionality that anyone has found lacking in OpenBGPD? Thanks for your time
Mobile IP routing
Hello List, Is there any sort of transparent Mobile IP implementation in OpenBSD? I see the use of GRE is supported. I am looking for something along the lines of TMIP (www.slyware.com/projects_tmip.shtml) where the layer 2 and or layer 3 devices can communicate with each other on the separate networks to allow end users to roam between these multiple networks without the need of some Mobile IP agent installed and let the end user retain the same IP address throughout the multiple layer 2 and layer 3 networks. TMIP looks like exactly what I am looking for but it appears to not be maintained (last update was in 2003). It does not appear just using GRE by itself would address this scenario. Almost all commercial products that implement Mobile IP technology requires end user software to be installed. I have heard Juniper equipment can handle this but I have not received any details on this yet. Another commercial vendor that appears to have this functionality is Blue Socket (bluesocket.com/products/controllerfamily.html then search on page for "Adds New Meaning to Wireless Lan Security") Someone could be hired to look into updating/maintaining TMIP or scrapping it and start fresh but I was hoping someone here might have some experience or insight on this or point me in another direction. I know OpenBSD prides itself (rightly so) on quality programming so if there was an OpenBSD version of what I am looking for that would be awesome. Thanks for your time, Justin

This "feature" causes so many problems for anyone with a lot of mail and are also using an external mail spam/virus filtering service because usually tons of mail originates from only a handful of servers, the filtering servers. If anyone has any know how on tweaking Cisco's smtp fixup protocol, that would be great.
