Howdy,
    I've been digging around google for an hour now trying to find info 
on multipathing in freebsd, I've stumbled on a few patches that pull it 
off, latest of which was for 4.8-stable located at: 
http://www.dsm.fordham.edu/~tanzer/multipath/
Unfortunately it's tossing errors during compile (on 4.10) though I 
hadn't looked any further at why.
Basically my question is: Will/Does FreeBSD 4.x or 5.x support any type 
of multipathing? I need to inject /32's into the routing table with 
multiple routes, so I can use OSPF to check availability of 
links/routes, then zebra/quagga to redirect traffic accordingly amongst 
the routes. I know zebra/quagga supports this, but obviously your OS's 
network stack would have to support said multiple routes, so I turn to 
-hackers. Thanks.
