I'm working on IP in IS-IS in GateD. For this to function I must have access to the OSI stack. I have it working under BSDI and NetBSD, but for obvious reasons it won't run under FreeBSD. IS-IS only needs a portion of the networking layer present and nothing above that. I need to be able to send packets on the Raw like OSI sockets (AF_ISO, SOCK_DGRAM, ISOPROTO_ESIS and ISOPROTO_CLTP). I do not need OSI routing to work. I don't actually need ES-IS (which is in kernel in BSD4.4) but if its not there I need some way to join the OSI physical layer multicast addresses. IP in IS-IS is actually fairly popular, so the removal of the OSI code may be worth reconsidering. Regards, Chris.
