Okay here is what I know:
PPP's IPCP protocol has problems removing the default route and I do not know
whether this is a problem of our stack or just my stupidity. :)
Removing an ifnet from our stack (if_detach) has not been tested. Maybe
something is left behind?
The stack and all its modules must be made thread-safe.
ifconfig is not fully functional. I think that "ifconfig down" fails.
Also, if I remember correctly, I once tried to change the IP of my ethernet
adapter. This failed somehow...Maybe even some structures in the stack were not
correctly removed/changed.
At the moment there is nothing more that comes into my mind.
Bye,
Waldemar
