I haven't played with zebra yet, but my understanding is that it supports a large subset of the IOS BGP configlanguage including application of route-maps to incoming/outgoing routes, and therefore things like prepending, setting metrics or preference, etc.Am I mistaken?
It is my impression that Zebra is pretty feature-rich.There are some things that are difficult for Zebra to do since they relate to (absent) capabilities in the host kernel, though; RFC 2385 requires the host to support the TCP MD5 Signature option, for example, and most do not.
