- fake multipath (even less simple)

OSPF
~~~~
- importing of device routes for networks where we don't run OSPF
- check incoming packets using neighbor cache
- - stub area: either no external routes or only default route

- automatic generation of external route tags (RFC1403)

- - RFC1793 Demand Circuit Support ??
- respect interface MTU and try not to create larger packets unless unavoidable
