Hi all,

In the last days I've been searching some solutions for ARP support with
bridge and FreeBSD, but I didn't find nothing, only patches for 7-stable
but no has testers and time to work.

For this project that I've been working for a long time I will have to use
ebtables, because it has full support.

The results in my lab comparing FreeBSD x Linux with network performance,
the FreeBSD was the faster, low latency and etc.

I would like to know if this new feature could be good for ipfw project? In
my opinion it will be the only features that there is no in FreeBSD
Networking. What do you think about? needs for testers? etc?


Best Regards,
Victor
