Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have been combing the freebsd.org site for the last two days attempting to find some documentation on how to configure and use a FreeBSD server as a router. I have found some information on configuring the server as a bridge as well as a filtering bridge, but no router info. Does anyone have any leads on some info? There seems to be a number of such articles/books for doing a similar feet under Linux, but I can't seem to find any such documentation for FreeBSD. I have been wondering about using the filtering bridge scheme. It would provide the segmentation of traffic that I need but does it provide routing tables, shortest data path info, etc. as a router would? Any assistance is appreciated.
