A new release of MRT (1.4.3A) is now available. 

This release provides significant improvements in stability and features over
earlier releases. We have also added Postscript and PDF user/programmer
documentation.

The highlights of this release includes:
  * MRTd -- a BGP4+, RIPng, and BGP4 routing daemon. The code is now
    stable and in "production" use as the 6Bone routing software at a
    number of sites. Supports Cisco Systems style configuration files with
    access-lists, route maps and a telnet command/configuration interface.
  * BGPSim -- a BGP4/BGP4+ traffic generation and simulation tool
  * SBGP -- a lightweight BGP4 tool for injecting packets and monitoring BGP4
    traffic
  * Route_BtoA/Route_AtoB -- tools for building and decoding protocol (BGP4,
    BGP4+, RIPng, RIP2) packets
  * IRRd -- A stand-alone Internet Routing Registry daemon.
