26 FreeBSD Networking: liboskit_freebsd_net.a

   

 

A note of caution.

The design of the networking framework is nowhere near where it should be. However, we, the OSKit developers, felt that networking is important and decided to release what we have.

The current implementation has been tested with only the most frequently used calls for TCP and UDP over a single ethernet interface, with a default router on the subnet to which the interface is connected. XXX We have done a simple router test with two interfaces.
