I ask it only with regard to the current FreeBSD routing table implementation. Is there any (no need to be official) information what is the number of different routes (for IPv4 and IPv6) on a default-free zone (DFZ) router in the Internet? I vaguely remember the number 450 000+ distinct routes for IPv4? But what about IPv6? On a related note, what is the number of the network interfaces on a DFZ router? No need for exact number, educated guess/estimation would be greatly appreciated too. Thank you very much in advance. -- Ivo Vachkov
