Quagga http://www.quagga.net/ provides independent daemons on linux that run dynamic routing protocols such as RIP, OSPF and BGP. Each daemon listens on its own separate purpose-built TCP port for telnet logins. Once you log in, the telnet command line virtually mimics a Cisco router.

There are no (open)suse rpm's, but it would be could to have them available ;)
I'll have a look at it this evening, for some RPMs ;)
That's about now :) I searched the net for spec files some time ago, and I think I found one for fedora. The spec file is very impressive and there is a lot that can be tuned using that spec file. In this case it's quite a lot of work. It would be very impressive if you come with opensuse rpms for this project!

I might be missing something here. I have installed quagga (look for the zebra and ospfd rpm's) and they are working like a charm form my SUSE 9.1 systems. They sync with CISCO routers and via OSPF, I can see the entire network from the IOS clone running under quagga. I set up a dummy eth (my VIP/VIPA) and via my two true eth NIC cards I can get to my servers via one of the two routes. If one of the eth cards take a dive for the worse, the remaining one pick up the traffic. If both are running, then there is load balancing. There are several methods for handling the source-IP that needs to be changed to the VIP/VIPA address. I did it the easy way with an "IP" command. The only penalty is the extra CPU consumed by quagga.
