Management could also be done via SNMP, but not to the ease of Cisco. Thoughts? I'd use my current router as-is, but FreeBSD lacks DECnet bits. :( What about using dynamips, a Cisco emulator? GNS3 is a beautiful GUI front end for it. I've never tried decnet through it, but I have used it to route between several virtual machines. Ian
