There is ONLY (ONLY) two well-debugged and wideworld checked router
implementation now - first is CISCO IOS, second is GATED.
First is checked over million CISCOs, second was
checked
by MERIT's back-bone, by a lot of ISP who used gated for their host-based
routers, and now by those vendors who implemented gated into their
routers. I do not think it's an excellent product (through nothing is
excellent in the Internet), but in comparation to the other
implementation it's out of competition for now (remember a lot of
Internet bums caused by Wellfleet? RIP broadcast storms over the
inter-sea links caused by Annex? And so on...).
Through the world is changed every day.
