The kits are available from: http://www.kame.net/ Summary of the differences from the previous release is enclosed below. Enjoy! --Kazu, KAME Project ---from here Here is summary of differences between KAME stable 980731 and 980930. <> - Added our home-brew NAT code, called "SuMiRe". (FreeBSD/BSDI only) NOTE: Since it lacks documentations at this moment, we don't recommend you to try this right now. <> - Supported router alert option to some extent. - Supported multicast listener discovery to some extent(host side). - Improved the management code for information obtained from router advertisements. - rtsold: router solicitation daemon, for interface management on endhosts. - Router renumbering support is ongoing. (is not working right now). - Number of multicast groups per socket is now unlimited; it was limited to 20 in the previous stable release. - Added a new mechanism to manage prefixes advertised by router advertisements for mobile stations. - IPv6 version of multicast kludge; unicast addresses can be safely deleted from an interface even if there is a multicast group on the interface. - More conformance to Neighbor Discovery specification, especially about processing router advertisements(see CHANGELOG). - IPV6_{ADD,DROP}_MEMBERSHIP is renamed to IPV6_{JOIN,LEAVE}_MEMBERSHIP. NOTE: latest revision of bsd-api-new-02, called "02a", renamed this again into IPV6_{JOIN,LEAVE}_GROUP. This kit uses definition based on "old 02". - ICMP Redirects to on-link destinations, that is, not to better routers. - ICMP error rate limitation. <> - "struct sockaddr_in6" was changed again to conform to draft-ietf-ipngwg-bsd-api-new-02 spec. sin6_ifindex member was removed, and struct members were reordered. NOTE: ALL THE USERLAND TOOLS MUST BE RECOMPILED. - Some library functions, inet6_option_XXX, are newly implemented, which are defined in RFC 2292(advanced sockets API). <> - "racoon" IKE daemon is now working in limited situations. - Proper source IPv4 address will be used for outer IPv4 header of IPv4 IPsec tunnel. Now you can configure VPN network with KAME routers. - Key management code is improved. <> - EPRT/EPSV support for ftp/ftpd. (rfc2428) - getnodeby{addr,name} has renamed to getipnodeby{addr,name} to conform to draft-ietf-ipngwg-bsd-api-new-02 spec. - Bunch of updates/additions in IPv6-ready ports collection (FreeBSD kit only). - Some of IPv6 enable patches are now distributed separately from FreeBSD ports directory, so that BSDI/NetBSD users can enjoy those patches. Please check ftp://ftp.kame.net/pub/kame/misc/. <> - For BSDI, ATM driver based on ALTQ kit has been merged into the kernel. ATM userland tools must be grabbed from ALTQ kit. visit ftp://ftp.csl.sony.co.jp/pub/kjc/. - Synchronized some of the kernel source code among three operating systems we support (FreeBSD/BSDI/NetBSD), to ease maintainance. ---to here To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
