Olivier Cochard-Labb=E9, founder of=A0FreeNAS, has=A0released the first alpha (0.1) image of his new project:=A0BSD=A0Router Project - http://bsdrp.net bsdrp is an open source, customised distribution of=A0FreeBSD dedicated to offering IP routing services for small ISP's. The release 0.1 of BSDRP is a fully working prototype, to be used on real or virtual machines that boot from ATA device only (not usb). This first release includes: - Base FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT system (NanoBSD) for i386 - Customized script (config, upgrade, help, command completion, etc=85) - Quagga ready to use (OSPFv2, OSPFv3, RIP, RIPng and BGP) You may ask, what is the difference between BSDRP and=A0m0n0wall=A0of=A0pfS= ense. The main goal of BSDRP is not firewalling but routing. If you need=A0a firewall don't use BSDRP: Use m0n0wall or pfSense. BSDRP is not for a home use, but for compagny use (small ISP's for example)= . BSDRP doesn't have a Web GUI: It's to be configured from a CLI only (like Cisco or Juniper) pfSense can be used for routing, but Olivier wanted to set up=A0a Cisco or Juniper like project just for routing.
