Re: Using old thin clients as a BGP testbed

2007-01-25 Thread unixgeek
Does anyone know of organizations that will allow BGP peering sessions (using private AS numbers) to be established for such test systems described on this thread? The application here is for use in teaching an advance routing class @ a community college here in Ohio. Thanks! Glenn On Thu,

I would think that there would be some sense of "urgency" to get the new rthreads implementation up-an-running (at least for the i386 and AMD64 platforms) otherwise OpenBSD will become less and less viable as a general purpose server platform (I like OpenBSD a lot) and really hate to see this hap

I have not seen it discussed much on the list, but OpenBGP works *very* well and is easy to setup using Hurricane Electrics free (ipv6-in-ipv4) tunnel broker service. Kudos to Henning for all the good work that went into making this available in v3.8!! I will try and create a quick and dirty web

your only workaround is to not send any capability it does not grok. this is guesswork. you might want to try to not announce v4 unicast capabilities... I was wondering exactly how this was specified in the bgpd.conf file? Since I was trying to do the same thing to connect to he.net and try out
