You either need to look into configuring your routers/switches
(hopefully they are all from the same mfg) or possibly deploying a few
multihomed Linux boxes running something like zebra or quagga.  Short of
that you could use iptables on all machines connected to the network,
but that would be a bigger challenge then just tweaking some machines on
your core.

&gt; &gt; I would be more than willing to do a ALE meeting on this, but it's not
&gt; &gt; really all that much to cover. ;-)

&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Don't talk about it, BE about it. ;)

&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Nothing stops you from doing presentations yourself, or bringing in people
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; that can. The ALE would welcome the effort - not reject it. Because it is a
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; volunteer group, the responsibility falls squarely on the shoulders of it's
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; members.
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I've seen complex subjects discussed. The security presentation presented by
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Bob Toxen (related to IP tables) went over my head - especially once they
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; started the verbal &quot;flame war&quot; over whether or not ipchains was better and
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; adding information on &quot;honey pots&quot; and such.
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; The same goes for this list. If you want a topic covered, post a question.
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Your results will vary of course. Not all posts get answered - even the ones
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; from the less skilled; sometimes there is a more important flamewar going on.
