Andrew, first big thanks for your work!

A> A> Highlights include: A> - 802.1d spanning tree support Sorry, I can't test at the moment. But I'd like to express my small wish about your future import to FreeBSD. When I have looked at it in NetBSD source tree, I've noticed that STP support is quite separate from the if_bridge itself. I like this very much. And it will be very useful if in FreeBSD the STP kernel "library" won't depend on if_bridge at all. I'm asking for this because I'd like to have STP support to ng_bridge(4) using the same engine as if_bridge does. -- Totus tuus, Glebius. GLEBIUS-RIPN GLEB-RIPE
