I'm looking for an open source router solution, and someone from the list recently recommended zebra (www.zebra.org). I haven't yet identified all my needs, but I'm guessing that it will do all my routing needs for a, say, class C set of IP addresses, particularly if I ever have to do anything BGP-related.
Anyone have any pointers before I delve in? Or possibly a recommendation for another open source routing solution? Yeah, I know about Cisco stuff, but I'm hoping to limp along on a shoestring budget until I get a few more things in place, then I'll rethink everything.
Hi Rogelio There is / was a project called something like the CD router project. It would turn an old PC with all the PCI slots filled with NIC's and a CD ROM drive into a router. Don't know if its still around and I'm not on line at the moment to have a look. I'm almost sure I have a copy on CD at home some where, if you want let me know and I will have a look for it. John
