>From freebsd-net. Timely, eh? ----- Forwarded message from Kazu Yamamoto <kazu@iijlab.net> ----- To: freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: KAME 19981130 stable release From: Kazu Yamamoto (?$B;3K\OBI'?(B) <kazu@iijlab.net> Message-Id: <19981203155624S.kazu@iijlab.net> Date: Thu, 03 Dec 1998 15:56:24 +0900 Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG We are happy to inform you the stable release of KAME 19981130 for FreeBSD 2.2.7, BSD/OS 3.0, and NetBSD 1.3.2 . 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 <<IPv4>> - Introduced loop prevention mechanism for gif input and output. <<IPv6>> - Implemented kernel level multicast forwarding with PIM. - Introduced loop prevention mechanism for gif input and output. - Implemented kernel level prefix renumbering mechanism and its API for the "rrenumd" daemon and the "prefix" command. - Gif tunnel IPv6 support as outer encapsulation. (was not possible) - Gif tunnel extension for multiple destination. (contributed by dwiggins@bbn.com) - Neighbor discovery code was stabilized. - ICMPv6 redirect is now working properly. <<IPv6 API>> <<IPsec>> - IPv4 IPsec (both transport and tunnel) was stabilized very much. - IPsec tunnel now handles path MTU and TCP MSS properly. - IPv4 options are now properly handled by IPsec code. - Most of the ESP/AH algorithms is now confirmed to be interoperable with other implementations. - The "racoon" IKE daemon was updated for better interoperability. - Statistics is now properly gathered. <<Userland>> - Implemented "pim6dd", a daemon of PIMv2 dense mode for IPv6, to support IPv6 multicast routing. - IPv6 hostname with AAAA record, or numarical IPv6 address escaped by [ ], is supported as proxy server specification for mozilla. - Implemented the "prefix" command for prefix assignment and renumbering inside a node. - Implemented the "rrenumd" daemon for sending router renumbering messages. - Enhanced the "rtadvd" daemon for receiving router renumbering messages and renumbering pre-assigned prefixes. - Resolver was updated to keep binary compatibility with existing implementations. Namely, struct _res is now kept unchanged from original bind distribution. - EPSV/EPRT support for FAITH TCP translator. - "tcpdump" is now able to chase IPv6 header chain and to analyze IPsec related packets. - IPv6-ready logwtmp() and skeyaccess() is now supplied (FreeBSD only). <<Others>> - Copyright notice was changed. We are now using 3-clause BSD copyright. - New ports: "apache13", "gated" ("apache" is renamed to "apache12") - "lynx" security hole fix included into the IPv6-ready ports directory. (this is a problem with the original "lynx", not the IPv6 patch) - KAME on NetBSD-pmax is now confirmed to work. ---To Here To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Gregory S.
