The general consesus was that the best = approach would be the OpenBSD way - transporting the FIB number in the = message and letting the user applications filter out unwanted messages. Are there any plans to tackle this before 9.0? Thanks, Vlad [1] http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3Dkern/134931=
