Feeding full routes to a linux 2.0.3x box running gated, I get: # cat /proc/net/route | wc -l 54677 and that command takes 13s to complete. When dealing with that many routes on a *nix box, better tools would be nice. On my 3640, I can do a show ip route blah, and get immediate response. On the linux box above, I have no such tool. I should fire up a copy of gated 4.x and see how gii performs, but its kind of a drag not being allowed to use the newer code on anything but personal testing/development systems. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jon Lewis <[email protected]> | Spammers will be winnuked or Network Administrator | nestea'd...whatever it takes Florida Digital Turnpike | to get the job done. ______http://inorganic5.fdt.net/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key____
